Torsten,

Here are the contents of the 113 byte file:

# cat jmarshall-session-0.0588562174971266-att0
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
        name="ColumbusConvicts2003draft.xls"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

#

I also made the changes to neomail.pl, and reran my
test. I find no obvious lines in my stderr.log file
for my web server, or in the neomail.log file that
give me length values. I tried attatching the log file
to a message sent last week, but it was bounced back
as I had exceeded the maximum message size for the
list.

Can you give example output of the warn() function
that I should look for?
