In reply to Ulrich Kroener's message :
Did you use Eudora as mailer? I had the same problem, and succeeded
in editing mhexternal.pl to tweak away the semicolon.
Yep, done that too. It works :-).
What version of Perl and MHonArc are you using? The version of MHonArc I
have (1.1.0?) does not work with Perl 5; MIME document encoding fails.
However, that has been fixed in 1.2.1.
Did you take a look at the output of MHonArc of what used to be your Word
document? Is it 7 bit ASCII, 8 bit binary, 6 bit base64 or something else?
I use the Mhonarc 1.2.2 and Perl 5, so there's no problem with MIME encoding.
You've put your finger on the right problem, it's a file format discrepancy.
The file stored on the Unix server is not recognised by Word as a valid
document.
I'm not very familiar with the fomats you mentioned, I mean I've heard the names
a million times but I don't think I could write a script that does conversions
between those types. Any advice as to where I could find information about that
?
Naturally if you would be so kind as to explain the basics to me, I'd be
delighted
:-)
Thanks for your help,
