Just updated to RH 7.1 and KDE 2.1, in part because I figured kmail would be
much improved in KDE 2.1. Unfortunately, it still mangles my attachments. If
I attach a PDF document to an outgoing message, for instance, the recipient can't
read the PDF (even if I send it to myself). This happens regardless of which
encoding scheme I choose (None (8bit) / base 64 / quoted printable).

What's going on here? I saw a post suggesting that it might be caused by the

charset="iso-8859-1";

that kmail inserts....

Anyone have any suggestions or workarounds?

Thanks,

S

Very strange... should work without problems. Even just tested it by
sending myself a pdf-file. Maybe you have a very small pdf-file you can
email me ?

Mr S:
kmail 1.2 works fine with kde 2.1.1, it is now excellent, including
attachments etc...

Make sure that you have all the libraries installed for kde 2.1.1
I had myself a problem there.
The SUSE website provide a good miniHOWTO for this. (www.suse.com)
