Re: [Evolution] JPEGs from a Mac OS X

 It comes in and I can't do ANYthing with it. I see the attachment. I
 cannot view it in The GIMP, Electric Eyes... nothing. 

Can you figure out, which mail program your dad is using? You should see
an entry in the mail header of his mail.

I have a Mac and if you like, I can send a JPEG image to your mailbox. I
just sent a mail using Apple Mail 1.2 (for Mac OS X (Jaguar)) to my
Evolution 1.1.2 (SuSE 7.3) and it worked fine - without any problems.

What mail client is he using?

Before attaching what is the 'cksum' on the file?  Is that the same sum as
when you detach it?

Cheers,

Re: [Evolution] JPEGs from a Mac OS X

I can try sending myself a jpeg from my OS X box and see if my evolution
has any issues with it (Red Hat Linux).

What happens when you scp said jpeg from his OS X box to your linux box?

 My Dad just made the switch from a WinTel machine to a blowtorch of a
 Mac (it's really sweet). He's still climbing the learning curve, so
 we've hit a hitch we can't get over. He attaches a jpeg picture (he's a
 huge railfan, likes trains) to an e-mail and sends it to me. 
 
 It comes in and I can't do ANYthing with it. I see the attachment. I
 cannot view it in The GIMP, Electric Eyes... nothing. I save it to disk,
 and it saves, but when I try to pull it up, I get Unknown. But, it's a
 standard JPEG.
 
 Seems to me it's a coding config problem. Does anyone know what might be
 the problem? He says he can send the same pic to his WinTel machine (via
 Juno, another dial-up he has) and it comes through fine in WinDoze. 
 
 Thanks!

Tell him he'll be doing you a real favor by sending it as a .zip file
(do Macs have zip?) gzip -d or gunzip it.

Tell him that, come the spring, you'll mow the lawn for him.

Best,

Really?? Is that the best answer to the problem?? You sound like you've
bumped into this one before. And, there's no other fix for it? Is there
a reason it happens?

I told him. But, I bet he doesn't hold his breath. We live just about 1
hemisphere apart.  :-)

You did a uudecode right?
Ah the good old times when mail was run via uucp.
Read something about the history of the Internet, there you will find
uuencode and uudecode.
Hope this helps,

To be honest, I've no idea. But what he's sending you will be 7-bit
encoded one way or the other. The best bet is base64 that's gone wrong
somewhere - you hinted at the same yourself. And yes, I have something
to do with anti-virus and anti-spam shit and how to deal with those
things in smtp mail, even base64 coded and suchlike. You never know, it
might work.
