- There is a huge bug in ATTMail that causes it to reject MIME messages.
- ATT is aware of the problem but (obviously) has not fixed it yet.
-
- The only workaround I know of for this in PMDF is to configure a special
- channel for connecting to attmail.com that uses a header option file
- to strip the relevant MIME header (Content-type:).
-
- I don't know who to contact at ATT to complain about this -- doubtless someone
- else on this list will know the specifics. Any additional information about
- this problem that has come up since the last time it was discussed on this
- list would also be appreciated.
