Re: [SL] Email invoice isn't formatted properly on all HTML email clients - SQL-Ledger 1.8.3 clean install

[Fred L. <lin...@la...>]

Okay, I applied the upgrade, but I still seem to have the same problem.  
It seems to be a problem with the attachment encoding - I also tried 
generating a PDF, and it opens fine when saved as an attachment from 
PINE, but in Outlook the attachment is mangled, so Acrobat Reader can't 
open it.

When I posted earlier, I didn't realize right away that there was a 
hyperlink there for the upgrade.  I downloaded 1.8.3 again and applied 
it before I realized that it was the same, and then realized that the 
upgrade hyperlink was a different file.  I also had a lot of trouble 
staying connected to the site to download the file.  I checked my 
connection and speedtest.com reported my connection running just over 1 
Mbps, which is normal for me.

I was downloading from the main site, sql-ledger/source/download.htm...

Thanks!

Fred
