I'm trying to MIME encode a Comma Seperated file to be emailed to a user.
Some of the fields contain NULL characters, encased in quotes.
When MIME hits one of these, it truncates the record including the CRLF record terminator.
It this a bug?
Does anyone have a Perl script that I can use to search files for a NULL and send a warning?
Are there any other utilities available that can MIME encode a file?
Rob.

Re: Bug In MIME.EXE With NULL's?
Just tried to mail a txt file with NULL, "NULL" and 'NULL' and it all arrived well (no trunc).
Mime 1.7 on VMS 7.3.
The file is ADDed without any options in mime.

Re: Bug In MIME.EXE With NULL's?
confirmed with MIME V1.9 on OpenVMS Alpha V8.2. Maybe you need MIME> ADD/BIN file
Wim,
it's about a binary NULL character - can be created in TPU with Gold 0 Gold 3 (=SPECINS)

Re: Bug In MIME.EXE With NULL's?
ADD
/BINARY
Sets Content-Type to "application/octet-stream" and
Content-Transfer-Encoding to "Base64". This format can
be used to represent an arbitrary binary data stream.
The binary NULL correctly arrives after an ADD/BIN and sending the created MIME mail file through VMSmail locally.

Re: Bug In MIME.EXE With NULL's?
But this is what I expect of binary data.

Solutionthen use Quoted-Printable encoding (why else do You want MIME encode ?):
MIME> add/text/encode=Quoted file
or add a line for the file-extension in
SYS$COMMON:[SYSMGR]MIME$FILETYPES.DAT
specifying
thistyp, text/plain, Quoted-Printable
so that a simple ADD does it for *.thistyp .

Re: Bug In MIME.EXE With NULL's?
Every thing in memory (or a file) is binary.
The question here is, TEXT in mail should be
ASCII codes 32-126 only, everything else should be quoted.

Even if it is replaced by VMS upgrades, don't You have, as a system manager, a separate directory, where all the customized files live ? :-)
