Problem Messages stripping some emails of jpg

[Howard Robinson]

Hi Martin
Thanks for your reply
 
Yes 'grepped'  in rules and mailscanner.conf and apart from change mentioned in previous email (overlapping this one)
 ie adding To: b at mydomin no
 in the converthtml.rules file restart and succeful, remmed out and failed. but a at mydomin works regardless.


I can't see any other reference to either address in any rule or conf files
 
Regards


Howard
