<DIV><SPAN class=291435314-26052004><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm having a very
frustrating problem. We run a production process that uses mutt to mail PDF's to
customers. Now I know mutt has some known issues with PDF's, but, the problems
introduced are compounded by adding a signature to the email after scanning
using MailScanner. The footer seems to cause the PDF to corrupt to the point it
is unusable in SOME CASES. I know this is to do with the fact that mutt uses
quoted-printable content transfer encoding cos if I use mutt interactivly &
force the encoding type to base64 then everything works.. attach from the
command line & it all corrupts.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=291435314-26052004><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now the mailscanner
part:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=291435314-26052004><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=291435314-26052004><FONT face=Arial size=2>If I remove the
footer (but still scan the file as normal) the pdf remains "usable" (if a little
corrupt)... If I add the footer inline then it corrupts further to the point
that when adobe rebuild the pdf it loses data etc. Looking at the physical mail
file it looks like when the footer is added LF & CR are added / changed. We
do not want to lose the footer... is there a way that we can work round the
problem by maybe attaching the footer instead of putting it inline, is there an
option for the inline signature to be placed onto the mail as an attachment? If
not is there any plans to add in this function? Has anybody else had expiriences
such as these & if so how did you overcome them... Any help would be
good.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
