Hi all,

When you send large attachments blat will send the attachments
separate; each in one mail. This works fine unless I use the "-charset
UTF-8" option.

In that case blat does not send the start of the mime header in the
body. For reference that are header like these:

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
 boundary="=_BlatBoundary-jruLJkCRkhsvS5MX3ZhF1"

The recipient does not see an attachment, but only a body which starts
with "--=_BlatBoundary-jruLJkCRkhsvS5MX3ZhF1" followed with a lot of
base64 strings.

I tried blat 2.7.6 and 3.2.3 and both did the same thing.

I guess that blat should insert the MIME headers as well for the
recipient to receive the attachment as an actual attachment.

Best regards,
Jeroen Eeuwes
