when a job fails, mails to root are sent with the subject
"GE 6.2u5: Job 123 failed" (6.2u5-4/Ubuntu Precise).  The

| Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

This means (at least in Gnus) that I have to type K i to see
the actual error report.

Is there an option to mark the reports as text/plain like
they appear to be?
This is done by your MTA (AFAICS not all are doing it), as it detects a "0-backkspace-INFINITY" and 
encodes the "backspace". What can be done: remove the 0-backspace in a wrapper and set 
"mailer" in SGE's configuration to this:

#!/bin/bash
sed "s/0"$'\b'"INFINITY/INFINITY/g" | mail -s "$2" "$3"

Reuti,

I only have this problem for e-mails about jobs failing, not when they start or finish. If SGE is handling only adding the "0-backspace-INFINITY" to some of the e-mails it generates, shouldn't that be considered a bug?

Thanks for the workaround. I'll try it on my system.
