Whenever I try to send someone a .pdf file as an attachment, the coding

the message body) but apparently people using other email clients are
unable to find or view the file. All they see is the lines of code.
What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
From the sound of it, nothing. If your outgoing message is well-formed
(as proven by the fact that you can view a copy), the configuration
problem is at your recipient's end.
Test questions:
1) Does this happen with all senders, or just with you? (I'm guessing
all who send PDFs)
I think you misunderstood what I said. If I send a .pdf file in a test
message to myself using the SeaMonkey email client, and then read that
message using the SeaMonkey email client, I see the lines of code inline
in the body of the message. But I also see the attachment as a file in
the attachments box, so the attachment comes through but with all the
extraneous lines in the message body.
Yes, this is clearer. I didn't notice the parenthetical in which you
stated that you could reproduce the error by viewing the message
yourself in SeaMonkey. As I read your original description, only other
recipients experienced the problem.
