I have a problem with Majordomo 1.94/Solaris 5.5.1, and was wondering
if anyone else has come across it.
One of my users is on Compuserve, and when he sends mail to the list,
the non-digest readers see it fine. However, when it gets put into the
digest, the formatting is changed.
The mail headers of his message are:
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
Content-Disposition: inline
Precedence: bulk
X-Lines: 28
Status: RO
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1"
Content-Length: 1272
Now here is how his text appears in the non-digest version.
I changed all upper case letters to 'A', lower case letters to 'a':
Aaaaa Aaaaaa aaa aaa aaaaaaaa aaaa aaaaaa Aa Aaaaa aaaa aaaaaa aa aaaa.
(A'a aaaaaaa a 1000 aaaa aaaa.) Aaaaa aaaaaaa aa aaaa Aaa aaa aa aaaaaa
aaaa aaa aaaa aaaa aa aaaaaaaa aaaaa aaaaa aaaaaaaa. A aaaa aaa aaaa aa aa
aa aaaa aaaa aaaaaaa aa aaaaa a aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa aaa aaa aaa aaa aaaa
aaa aaaa aaaa (aa aa aa aaaaaaaa aaaa) aa aaa aaaaaa aaaa aaaa aaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaa aaa aaaaaaa. A aa aaaaaaa aa aaaa aaaaaa aaa aaaa a aaa aaaaa,
aa aaa aa aaaa aaaa A aaaa aaa aaa aaaa. Aa aaaaaa aaa aaaa aaaaaa aaaaa
aaaa aaaa aa aaaa aaa aa aa aaa aa aaaa aaaa aaaaa aaaaaa aaa aaaa aaaa
aaaa aa aaaaaa aaaaaaaa.

This is how the digest formats the text:
Long lines are wrapped with a '=' character.
Aaaaa Aaaaaa aaa aaa aaaaaaaa aaaa aaaaaa Aa Aaaaa aaaa aaaaaa aa aaaa.
(A'a aaaaaaa a 1000 aaaa aaaa.) Aaaaa aaaaaaa aa aaaa Aaa aaa aa aaaaaa
aaaa aaa aaaa aaaa aa aaaaaaaa aaaaa aaaaa aaaaaaaa. A aaaa aaa aaaa aa =
aa
aa aaaa aaaa aaaaaaa aa aaaaa a aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa aaa aaa aaa aaa aaaa
aaa aaaa aaaa (aa aa aa aaaaaaaa aaaa) aa aaa aaaaaa aaaa aaaa aaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaa aaa aaaaaaa. A aa aaaaaaa aa aaaa aaaaaa aaa aaaa a aaa aaaaa,=
aa aaa aa aaaa aaaa A aaaa aaa aaa aaaa. Aa aaaaaa aaa aaaa aaaaaa aaaaa=
aaaa aaaa aa aaaa aaa aa aa aaa aa aaaa aaaa aaaaa aaaaaa aaa aaaa aaaa
aaaa aa aaaaaa aaaaaaaa.

Something seems to be wrapping lines to 73, and adding a '=' at the end.
I looked in the digest code, but didn't see anything obvious about line length.
I don't know if it's my mail system, the digest script, or something else.
I would appreciate any advice, and would really appreciate a fix.
The files in the archive seem to have the same coding of characters,
where = at the end means the end of a soft line wrap.
First thing I will to is upgrade majordomo to the latest revision...
