sendmail message body buffer limit?
when sending the contents of a ascii file to the body of an email then sending it off. it seems sendmail is breaking up the lines with a "!" thus ruining the data. Has this ever happened to anyone?
i am guessing there is a line buffer limit in either the mail command or in sendmail itself. Does anyone know how to alter this buffer? it is 992 charters w/ spaces. the 992 charter is a "!" |

Found it. in the sendmail.cf file. didnt quite know what to look for but it had to be in the mailer properties.
Code:

Email buffer
I have the same problem. I wondered how you solved the body buffer size limit. I am sending XML message in the body and after a given amount of characters the "!" appears. Can you help me to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance Twan Rekkers |

you see the line that is marked L=# well that is a charter count per line.
If you break the lines down to less then what is stated in the allowed length you wont have this problem. |
