Special Forums Windows & DOS: Issues & Discussions email from *nix to Exchange - text formatting issue Post 302690847 by jim mcnamara on Thursday 23rd of August 2012 12:31:30 PM

We frequently see our exchange server try to dink with carriage control in messages from unix. A common exchange notification when you open the message is:

"extra line breaks in this message were removed" in a blue band at the email head.
Clicking on the band resores the "extra" line breaks.

and we have lines that were separate globbed together by exchange, just like in your example. This appears to be your problem, too. We get arround it:

Code:
# note we add .txt so windows can open the file with word
unix2dos logfile logfile.txt
uuencode logfile.txt logfile.txt | mail -s 'subject'  who@where.com

Exchange does not mess with those attachments.

More of a UNIX-side solution

NAME
cachefslog - Cache File System logging SYNOPSIS
logfile| cachefs_mount_point DESCRIPTION
The command is used to enable or disable logging for a cachefs_mount_point. When the command is used without any options, it displays the logfile. The logfile contains information on the operation performed on a cachefs_mount_point and statistics used by to get the working set size of cache directory. The specified logfile will contain information for all the CacheFS mount points using the same cache direc- tory. A logfile and a cache directory have a 1-to-1 mapping; that is, even if a cache directory is removed and recreated with the same name, the logfile used in the previous instance of the cache directory cannot be reused with the new cache directory. Enabling logging may have performance impact, even if minimal, on the operations for all the CacheFS mount points using the same cache directory. The command is mainly used for debugging purposes. Options The following options are supported. You must be a superuser to use the and options. Specify the logfile to be used. Halt logging. Operands cachefs_mount_point A mount point of a cache file system. RETURN VALUE
returns the following values: Success. non-zero An error occurred. EXAMPLES
1. Checking the logging of a directory. This example checks if the CacheFS file system is being logged: 2. Changing the logfile. This example changes the logfile of to 3. Verifying the change of a logfile. This example verifies the change of the previous example: 4. Halting the logging of a directory. This example halts logging for the directory: AUTHOR
