The message body still shows up blank whether I include NOHEADER or not. This 
problem only occurs when using TEXTATTACHMENT, otherwise any messages show up 
normally so it’s really bugging me. One other member suggested that it might be 
because I broke the email limit size of 40KB? Is there such a size limit for 
the email? For attachments? Otherwise it could just be the mail server that my 
company is using as you have stated.

Subject: RE: [staf-users] STAF Email Service empty message

I used basically the same EMAIL SEND request -- different addresses but the 
same message, subject and with two text attachments and it worked fine with my 
company's SMTP mail server.  The email contained the two attachments as well as 
the message "TEST MESSAGE" after the default header " in the body of the email 
as follows:

******************************************************************
* DO NOT RESPOND TO THE SERVICE MACHINE THAT GENERATED THIS NOTE *
******************************************************************

TEST MESSAGE

So, the problem appears to be specific to the mail server that you're using.

If you specify the NOHEADER option (to indicate that the "DO NOT RESPOND TO THE 
SERVICE MACHINE THAT GENERATED THIS NOTE" header should not be included at the 
beginning of the email body), do you see your message in the email?  I'm not 
sure what else to suggest -- other than to try a different mail server if you 
have access to another one.

The command I used is:

staf local email SEND TO em...@company.com<mailto:em...@company.com>FROM 
ema...@company.com<mailto:ema...@company.com>CC 
ema...@company.com<mailto:ema...@company.com>CC

ema...@company.com<mailto:ema...@company.com>MESSAGE “TEST MESSAGE” SUBJECT 
“Test Subject” TEXTATTACHMENT /tmp/test_results.html TEXTATTACHMENT 
/tmp/test_result2.txt

The email log query did not report any errors and it seems like everything has 
gone through, but my message “TEST MESSAGE” does not appear in the email and it 
just shows up blank. All attachments are accounted for, though.

Here is the output from email log query:

Subject: Re: [staf-users] STAF Email Service empty message

When I use the TEXTATTACHMENT parameter on a EMAIL SEND request, I see the 
message in the email followed by the contents of the text file I attached.  The 
mail server is not Outlook 365.  Are there any error messages logged in the 
Email service log file?

C:\>STAF local email SEND TO 
myem...@company.com<mailto:myem...@company.com>SUBJECT "Attachment Test"
MESSAGE "This is a test of attaching a text file" TEXTATTACHMENT

For example, to see the last 10 records in the Email service log file, submit a 
LOG QUERY request like the following:

Subject:        [staf-users] STAF Email Service empty message
________________________________




Hello,

I’m using STAF Email Service to send test results to others but ran into a 
problem where the body of the message comes up empty/blank in the email 
whenever I use the TEXTATTACHMENT option to include an attachment.

When I exclude the TEXTATTACHMENT parameter, the message body shows up fine in 
the email. Am I doing something wrong or is there a way to remedy this problem? 
The email client that is being used to send/receive emails is Outlook 365. 
Thank 
you.------------------------------------------------------------------------------
