Re: Mail_mime and attachements

Mark, On the get() function there are some parameters which are discussed in the PEAR documentation. Try playing with those. Until I toyed with those, I myself had dificulties in receiving "clean" mail in Outlook, Mozilla, etc. - Stan Mark Heintz PHP Mailing Lists wrote:

I'm attempting to send an email with a single attachment (doc, pdf, or the like) using Mail_mime (most recent version via go-pear). While the script successfully sends out the email with the attachment, the base64 encoded attachment appears in the body of the message when viewed by the client (outlook, mozilla). A search of the list archives turned up similar problems: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=pear-general&m=105250877019887&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=pear-general&m=105099147519094&w=2 However, neither of these have any responses/follow-ups. A sample of the code and resulting email follows. Am I missing something? I'm not too familiar with email headers, but the blank Content-Type seems odd. Is this attachment-in-body a known problem with Mail_mime, and if so is there a work-around (or should I just avoid using Mail_mime in the future)?
