Hi there, The majority of machines in the School's Grid here at VUW have been switched, from the previous NetBSD OS, over to an ArchLinux OS.
I have noticed that admin mail, eg notification of a failed job, from the Grid Engine (GE 6.2u2_1, ok, ok, it's old) which used to appear as a single text message body, trips the base64 encoding in the ArchLinux's heirloom-mailx MDA and so you no longer get plain text. Looking at the admin email content, the characters that result in such an encoding being required, are ones appearing in lines such as 07/24/2011 15:34:50 [96:15007]: RLIMIT_CPU setting: (soft 0INFINITY hard 0INFINITY) resulting: (soft 0INFINITY hard 0INFINITY) and seem to be, Ctrl-H #x8 Any insight as to why these characters are there, and could their place not be taken by something "plainer" ? Just wondering, Kevin -- Kevin M.
