I sure hope you mean "quoted-printable" instead of base64. I don't think we would ever do base64 on text, unless you explicitly told it to. >Specifically: > > mhbuild: -maxunencoded 9999 > >This has not been a problem for me until I used the "attach" >option suggested by this thread: when I then used "send" I get: > > What now? s > mhbuild: -maxunencoded unknown Ah, okay. TWO problems. The first problem is .... -maxunencoded is not supported for 1.5! So you getting this error message is TOTALLY expected, and is not a bug. Bob, I have to ask ... was nmh encoding long lines a problem for you? Before it would always do it, but ONLY when you ran mhbuild. As of 1.6 mhbuild is always run, but that wasn't done for 1.5; it was only run if you asked for it (like when you use attach). The second problem is that if you were running 1.6, you'd get this: What now? s mhbuild: limit of -maxunencoded is 998 Which is relatively self-explanatory (the limit for line length in messages is 1000, so subtracting a CR-LF gets you to 998). --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
