file corruption

[ngoodman]

a strange one here I have a app that logs alarms to a text file

I can open the text file and all is OK but when i email from within daqfactory the file becomes corrupted any ideas?

function that does the email is copied below

email.strHost = "mailsvr2"

email.strUserName = "" //username

email.strPassword = "" //password

email.strTo = "xxxx@kesxxxxlbce.co.uk"

email.strCC = " "

email.strReplyAddress = ""

email.strSubject = "Log file attached"

email.strFile = "x:\daqfactory\skinalarm.txt"

email.Port = "25"

email.strAuthenticate = "NoLogin"

email.Send()

I can email the file within lotus notes and it arrives ok?

any ideas??????????

Thanks

what sort of corruption?

by trial and error I solved the problem if i added a body field to the script and entered some text the file arrived intact ??????????

Attachments actually end up as part of the body in the email encoded using MIME, so its possible that either our client or your server is mangling things if there is no regular body to add the attachment to the end of.
