Re: [Mailman-Users] Image orientation in scrubbed attachments
Mark, thank you very much for your help, which got me on the right track. Indeed, the problem is that iPad photos, even when they are taken with a portrait orientation, always carry Exif data that claim a landcape orientation. Web browsers and many mail clients orient pictures according to the Exif information. So, to make a long story short, if I remove the incorrect Exif orientation-info from those pictures before sending them to Mailman, they display correctly after scrubbing.

[Mailman-Users] Image orientation in scrubbed attachments
When scrubbing an image attachment such as a jpeg, Mailman seems to always orient it into landscape mode - irrespective of the orientation of the original. Is there some way to prevent this?
