... this is a change that was introduced recently, what is the rationale for that change? Why can't the old behavior stay? Changing commandline handling in that way breaks backward compatibility in a serious way and unfortunately also several scripts that people use over the years to send mails with attachments from the commandline. Would it be possible to revert that change to the old behavior? Rhonda -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
