At some point in its life. Hmm, yes. Two quick confessions. I don't understand mail encodings. I don't understand charsets either. I do get the gist of the problem though. It looks like to do things properly we'll need something like Email::MIME so that it will decode the message body into utf-8 or similar, at which point we can use regular perl to concat the obnoxious advertising in, and then rely on the other end to re-encode the message when it presents it to the MTA for delivery. Sadly the critical path there is the "something like Email::MIME" part, as the last I remember it doesn't exist outside of Simon's CVS repository and only copes with single-part mime. > -- Gabor > ps.

Excellent, I look forward to the upload. -- Richard Clamp <richardc@xxxxxxxxx.xxx>
