#19 Chunk of bytes as mail content !!!

[guillermo]

Hi,

I am trying to send the results of a windows backup by
using blat. I have tried blat194 blat222 and I always get
the same result: a chunk of bytes in place of the mail
text. Please, see below:

Return-Path:
...
Subject: Contents of file: c:\backup03.log
To: guillermo.ferri@tiscali.es
X-Mailer: WinNT's Blat ver 1.9.4 http://www.blat.net
Message-Id: <20041129095158.0958E374A81@smtp-
02.servidoresdns.net>

What is wrong with the log file ? What is the problem ?

I use the following commands to send the mail

1) blat -install smtp.domain.com user@domain.com
2) blat c:\backup03.log -to user@domain -debug -u
test -pw test

I have no problems sending other text plain files.

Thankyou very much for your attention.

Best regards,
Guillermo

I already had such problem, it is maybe because of utf/unicode.
I solved that by adding in the bat, beffore calling blat :
type backup.log > backup2.log

You can use the -base64 option to make Blat read and encode
the whole file. As noted already, the file is a unicode
format, with embedded binary zeroes. Plain text does not
use these values, so you should use -base64. I justed
tested this with 2.2.2 to make sure.
