You're probably being sent the attachment with an incorrect MIME type describing it as "just some kind of binary file, that I can't be stuffed to identify it properly." i.e. application/octet-stream As done by many broken mail clients and broken operating systems. Try sending yourself a PDF file, and it'll probably work properly, as your system will probably identify it correctly when it attaches the file to the outgoing message. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
