In time it would looke like this:
[Wed Nov  5 04:56:47 2003] neomail.pl: 2225 at
/www/kunden/secure.xtremeweb.de/ftp/cgi-bin/webmail/neomail.pl line 1252
, <fh00001C%3A\index.html> line 1.

If you want to find it better, make:

warn ("The size of the upload before encoding");
warn (length($attcontents));
$attcontents = encode_base64($attcontents);
warn ("The size of the upload after encoding");
warn (length($attcontents));

and search for 'The size of the upload' in your
apache error logfile.
