PDF-gets-corrupted

[Jerry Benton]

Run 

file --mime-type filename

on the PDF on the mailscanner server and check the return value. Even if that does not work, change your MIME types to allow all types and test again. (executables, avi, mpeg, etc.) After the email goes through (I know it will), start turning off the undesirable MIME types until you find the culprit. Also check your file names in /etc/mailscanner to make sure you are allowing .pdf

Historically this is the problem.
