X400: OSIWare Bodypart Contain (115443)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400 3.2
This article was previously published under Q115443 SYMPTOMS
An ISO6937 bodypart from OSIWare containing a banner for "OSIWARE" may
come through with <LR><CR> inserted at unexpected places.
CAUSE
OSIWare chops Unix files into 256-byte chunks and pours them into the
Context(0) octet strings that make an ISO6937 bodypart. The gateway
ignores the Unix line ends (LFs), since it isn't looking for them, and
when it comes to the end of a chunk it supplies a CRLF, since the chunks
are supposed to be lines and it is the job of the receiving MTAs to
supply line ends.
RESOLUTION
Microsoft believes that there is a problem with the OSIWare implementation.
No workaround is possible on the Microsoft side. Please contact OSIWare if
you encounter this problem.
