iMS 5.1 : uuencoded attachments bypass conversion channel ?!
it seems that uuencoded attachments, having a mime header of
--Boundary_(ID_us9m7TkTL9RgCQ1Ho9qBjg)
Content-type: application/pdf; name="Unix-SedOneLiners_en.pdf"
Content-transfer-encoding: x-uuencode
Content-disposition: attachment; filename="Unix-SedOneLiners_en.pdf"
are not recognized by the conversion channel, which passes them right away. having set master_debug and slave debug on the conversion channel, i see this in the log :
13:20:16.22: Processing part 2.
13:20:16.22:Content-transfer-encoding is bogus; no conversion possible.
13:20:16.22:Performing simple bodypart copy.
13:20:16.24: Finished with this part.
13:20:16.26: Processing successful. Terminate submission.
As the the conversion channel seems to be the most easy way to implement an email virusscanner, this means that uuencoded attachments are not checked by the conversion channel.
The same goes if you use the "secret" thurman keyword to correctly split uuencoded part which are stuck in the main body of the message. Those "corrected" attachments are also "content-type-encoding is bogus"
anybody has a way howto correctly pass uuencoded attachments via the conversion channel ?
