Hello everybody,
I upgraded Debian squeeze to buster and changed our mailutils version
and the mailing scripts I have for some automation stopped working.
I can not get Content-Disposition set to inline for the text/plain part.
I want to have an mail with a plain/text message shown inline (not as
attachment) and an PDF file as attachment.
We are using Mozilla Thunderbird 78.11.0-1~deb10u1 as mail client for
showing the messages.
The first example is what I used to have that used to work, but it does
not show the text any-more because it sets the Content-Disposition to
attachment.. for the plain/text.
EMAIL=jelledej...@powercraft.nl
NAMEWITHHOUSENUMBER=1234AB1
LASTNAME="de Jong"
CONTENT="Geachte heer en/of mevrouw $LASTNAME,\n\nHartelijk dank voor uw
aanvraag voor organization-advies.\n"
echo -e "$CONTENT" | mail.mailutils -s "organization-advies:
($NAMEWITHHOUSENUMBER)" -A /root/organization-flyer.pdf -a "BCC:
jelledej...@powercraft.nl" -a "From: organization B.V.
<i...@organization.com>" "$EMAIL"
# wrong for plain test part...
# Content-Type: application/octet-stream
# Content-Disposition: attachment
# Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
echo -e "$CONTENT" | mail.mailutils --subject="organization-advies:
($NAMEWITHHOUSENUMBER)" --content-type=application/octet-stream
--content-filename=organization-flyer.pdf
--attach=/root/Helmwijk-flyer.pdf -a "BCC: jelledej...@powercraft.nl" -a
"From: organization B.V. <i...@organization.com>" "$EMAIL"
# creates a three part message all with the wrong Content-Disposition:
attachment
emily:~# echo -e "$CONTENT" | mail.mailutils
--subject="organization-advies: ($NAMEWITHHOUSENUMBER)"
--content-type=text/plain --attach-fd=0
--content-type=application/octet-stream
--content-filename=organization-flyer.pdf
--attach=/root/organization-flyer.pdf -a "BCC:
jelledej...@powercraft.nl" -a "From: organization B.V.
<i...@organization.com>" "$EMAIL"
# Segmentation fault
echo -e "$CONTENT" | mail.mailutils --subject="organization-advies:
($NAMEWITHHOUSENUMBER)" --content-type=application/octet-stream
--content-filename=organization-flyer.pdf
--attach=/root/Helmwijk-flyer.pdf -a "BCC: jelledej...@powercraft.nl" -a
"From: organization B.V. <i...@organization.com>" "$EMAIL" --alternative
What to do to create my plain/text incline message with attached pdf
document?
Kind regards,
Jelle de Jong
