[opensuse] Howto prevent mail from Base64 encoding
Hi all, when I give the command (on Opensuse 10.2) mail -s subj e@mail < ascii.txt the E-mail is send with the file ascii.txt Base64 encoded. How can I switch that off, so that the text file appears as "plain text" in the body of the E-mail? Jouk Bush : All votes are equal but some votes are more equal than others.

man mail. String Options ... encoding The default MIME encoding to use in outgoing text messages and message parts. Valid values are 8bit or quoted-printable. The default is 8bit. In case the mail transfer system is not ESMTP compliant, quoted-printable should be used instead. If there is no need to encode a message, 7bit transfer mode is used, without regard to the value of this variable. Binary data is always encoded in base64 mode. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
