Hi,
I prepared with a script a few mail templates containing attachments. I
tried to send these using option -H of mutt.
Nevertheless I noticed that mutt ignores
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="1yeeQ81UyVL57Vl7"
and displays all attachments as part of the mail body.
Even using E to edit the message inclusing headers fails because it
doesn't contain a Content-Type: I could change.
I use the following workaround:
I send the mail with all attachments as part of the body to
me@localhost. Once I recieved the mail I'm able to edit the header
including the wrong Content-Type:. I also have to recode the file from
latin1 back to UTF-8 (by :set file-encoding=utf-8|:wq) since the encoding
was destroyed during the first send (encoding base64 was used
initially). Now I can bounce it to the wanted address.
This works really well ...
I attached a sample email template.
