What were you trying to do?
I'm documenting this for Angie.
I sent an email message to sipb-oracle that with this sort of structure:
| Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="IfhPODtivl1BCmut"
| Content-Disposition: inline
| Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
...
| --IfhPODtivl1BCmut
| Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
| Content-Disposition: inline
...
| --IfhPODtivl1BCmut
| Content-Type: message/rfc822
| Content-Disposition: inline
| Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
It's available in /mit/sly/Public/1727.
Anyhow, attempting to view the message:
[x15-cruise-basselope!jhawk] ~> show +/mit/sly/Public 1727
(Message /mit/sly/Public:1727)
mhshow: "message/rfc822" type in message 1727 should be encoded in 7bit, continuing...
What's wrong:
mhshow fails to display any of the message at all.
What should have happened:
Ideally, the text/plain portion of the message should have been
handled normally, and the message/rfc822 should have been displayed
with an 8-bit viewer, or barring that, a 7-bit view with the 8-bit
characters erased.
