Each time the message is sent one dot is added in these lines that is "." becomes ".." etc. This is a severe bug as the textfile is used as a scipt where also dots have their meaning! Example: Textfile sent: _____________________________________ ADD FIELD "kat" OF "Artikel" AS character DESCRIPTION "" FORMAT "X(20)" NOT-CASE-SENSITIVE . PSC codepage=ibm850 . 0000003587 _____________________________________ Textfile received: pleae note the last lines _____________________________________ ADD FIELD "kat" OF "Artikel" AS character DESCRIPTION "" FORMAT "X(20)" NOT-CASE-SENSITIVE .. PSC codepage=ibm850 .. 0000003587 ____________________________________ Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a message, attach a textfile as descibed 2. Send the message 3. Receive the message, check the attachment Actual Results: a single . in a line becomes .. Expected Results: attachments should not be changed in any kind!!!

I'm unable to duplicate this problem; it might be an SMTP server issue. Is the file created with TB, received by TB or both? If created by TB, does it appear in the Sent folder with the same problem? What sort of server is receiving the mail -- IMAP? MS Exchange, perhaps?

I assume this is a pop3 issue - because pop3 indicates the end of a message by a ".", i.e. ".<CRLF> , the pop3 server has to escape a real line with just a ".CRLF>" by adding a extra "." - the pop3 message download code is supposed to strip out the extra ".". and I thought it did...
