Yes! You are right! I checked the sources of two test emails I sent, one with attachment shared from WPS and one from File Explorer. I found that in the "attachment parts" of the sources, their Content-Transfer-Encoding are different! The Content-Transfer-Encoding of the correctly sent attachment is base64, and the other one is 8bit, which is the same as the Content-Transfer-Encoding of the "message parts" of the emails.
Is that the reason why the pdfs cannot be correctly sent? So it's WPS's fault?
