Here are some observations (and some files to look at). First, the files:
You will find these files at ftp://ftp.blinn.com/thebat/. I think there is a low limit on how many anon ftp users can be connected simultaneously. * Ray4x6.tif: Single standard TIFF that somehow became a 2-page TIFF with non-standard colors. * scampi_test.jpg - successful scampi_test9.jpg - unsuccessful * progress_test.jpg - successful progress_test9.jpg - unsuccessful * Inbox.zip - See below for explanation of what is there. Now the observations: I created a test file with 4 attachments and sent this message to another of my accounts 9 times. The account I sent the messages to was set to store attachments in a separate directory. Here are the results: IMG#1 IMG#2 IMG#3 IMG#4 1 FAIL GOOD GOOD GOOD 2 FAIL GOOD GOOD GOOD 3 FAIL GOOD GOOD GOOD 4 GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD 5 GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD 6 GOOD GOOD FAIL GOOD 7 GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD 8 GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD 9 GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD I then deleted the received messages, emptied the trash, compressed the folders, set the account to store attachments internally, and sent the messages again. Results: IMG#1 IMG#2 IMG#3 IMG#4 1 GOOD GOOD **** FAIL 2 GOOD GOOD FAIL GOOD 3 GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD 4 GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD 5 GOOD GOOD FAIL GOOD 6 GOOD GOOD FAIL GOOD 7 GOOD GOOD FAIL FAIL 8 GOOD GOOD FAIL FAIL 9 GOOD GOOD **** FAIL **** This image failed in a way I've never seen before. The icon in TB's attachments panel simply shows "base64" -- no file name at all. I have zipped the 2 inbox files and included them on the ftp site.
