Is kGetMail Converting File Endings?

Question:
I'm having a problem with Postie changing the file as it is retrieved via kGetMail.Here is my code:
AddExtender("WWPST34I.DLL")
host="mail.domain.com"
fromaddr="pospay@domain.com"
userid="pospay"
password="password"
port=""
msgnumber=""
extractfile=""
mailbox=""
flags=""
kInit(host,fromaddr,userid,password,port)
mymail=kGetMail(msgnumber,extractfile,strcat(""),mailbox,flags)
I do a few file copies and then execute these lines to delete the messages:
Flags="d"
mymail=kGetMail(msgnumber,extractfile,strcat(""),mailbox,flags)
Everything looked fine until I tried to use the file. It appears to change
the original file. Here are the two files:
If you notice the original file is 13.9 K and the postie file is 11.6 K. Whatever postie does to the file makes it unusable for my purposes. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a parameter that I am missing in my code?
Answer:
It looks like Postie has decided to convert CRLFs to LFs.- Maybe specify the "t" option.
I suspect that the sending PC is a MAC, and Postie, by default write the attahcment in "binary" mode - basically meaning "as send". Macs don't use LF's.
By specifying the "t" option you can request translation of CR to CRLF which is what you seem to want.
- You
could run the file through the following processor:
dafile="c:\temp\postie.fil" fs=Filesize(dafile) binbuf=BinaryAlloc(fs+2500) str=@lf newstr=@crlf ret = BinaryRead( binbuf, dafile ) num = BinaryReplace( binbuf, str, newstr ,0) Message( "Number of '%str%' strings replaced", num ) BinaryWrite( binbuf, dafile )
