I added your routine chkext() to the code, but actually use it differently. I
display now ASCII files not by their extension, but the code checks for each file
to contain non-printable characters. If it contains all printable letters, and does
not have the extension PDF, PS or EPS, it's shown inline.

I added ths missing tags. The validator at least does not complain any more.

This has to do with the "%S" vs. "%s" bug described elsewhere in this forum. 
I fixed that. The validator link above now also reports error free.

Unfortunately not. Please find attached the screen dump from such a try, together with the HTML code.
As you can see, the little elog icon is stretched to the same width as the upper (large) picture.

The "Preset xxx" option actually never was ment to be used with conditional
attributes. I added that functionality in rev. 1.553. Please give it a try.

Hi,

We have set up a elog server at our institute. The configuration file is
attached. We have the following queries:

1. When replying to another reply in a thread, the author_name attribute is
not substitued (as desired). Since this is a mandatory field, we are not
able to send the reply message. However, reply to the originial message
works fine.

2. "Use Email From = string" prepends an additional "" to the "From"
field in the e-mails.

3. "Fixed Attributes Reply = Subject" fixes the subject line while replying.
However when we add "Category" attribute to this list, it breaks.

Can someone help us?

Suggestions and tips will be thankfully recieved.

Hello,

This software is very good :) I like it, but I have some trouble with some
emails that I send from the system.

It seems that Outlook 2000 does not handle norwegian characters in the
Subject field when sending mails. We have Exchange and I don't know what
SMTP server that fetches mail from. We are sending mail out via sendmail on
RedHat ES V3 server.

Example (what it should be)

Subject: Testing ורז

Becomes
Subject: IKT sak =?UNKNOWN?B?KDYwKTo=?= Testing =?UNKNOWN?B?5fjm?=

config:
Use Email Subject = IKT sak ($message id): $Tittel

Ofcource this is only happens in Outlook. Sending to gmail reports it OK.
I've also seen that mutt sometimes replaces the  ורז with ? at my Linux
system at home.

Ofcource all this could be due to misconfigured clients. Outlook receives
mails with ורז fine when send from allmost all other systems.

I've suspect that this could be some old 7 bit / 8 bit problem or that the
mail is not properly encoded in MIME format?

If i send mail without any ורז characters in subject the subject is
displayed the way it should be.

Not a big problem though, not sure that it has been reportet before.
Searched for mime and found nothing useful.


Have a nice day!


Best regards
Michael

I am trying to use the command line utility elog. Some of the attributes 
that I have setup are multiple options. When I run the command line 
utility to create a new message, any attribute that is setup with multiple 
options will not be filled in. The syntax I am using is as  follows:

elog -h localhost -p 8080 -l Lab -a "Site=xxxx" -a "Area=System" -
a "Priority=Low" -a "Shift=1" -a "Status=Open" -m text.txt

Site and Area are defined in the config file as MOptions. Is there a way 
to use this feature with multiple options on attributes with the 
attributes = to one or more variables?
