    [ The following text is in the "iso-8859-1" character set. ]
    [ Your display is set for the "US-ASCII" character set.  ]
    [ Some characters may be displayed incorrectly. ]

Did you have some time to find about the text files that changed files and
format?

Problem below...
---------------------

Hello, Julian

Did you have a change to read my posts about the text files? I'm having this
problem with these particular text files and some binary files...

I put the two problematic files in an web page, if somebody could make a
test and see if it happens in your location too, would be intersting.

The first one (file.prj) goes out from Outlook Express with 1,80 Kb, as an
"ASCII text, with very long lines, with CRLF line terminators", and goes to
the destinatary with 1,93 Kb, as an "ASCII text, with very long lines".

The second one is a bigger file, identified only as "data" by the file
command. It goes out with 916 Kb, and goes to the destinatary with 952 Kb.
Really strange...

(The sizes of the files are the one presented in Outlook Express, I just put
these sizes here to show how the file sizes are diferent in my outbox and
the destinatary inbox).

The two files are at http://www.rudnick.com.br/files

Regards

Roger Jochem
