Re^8: Using Net::SMTP to send pdf attachment

Yayy! It's working now with the changes you made. Great Thanks !!!

Thanks too for the improved time subroutine.

Just out of curiosity, how does changing the chunk/buff to 4104 make the pdf file work? Will it work for all other pdf files created in similar fashion? Is 4104 a sort of magic number - would other numbers like 4105 or 4106 work too?

The max encoded line length is 76. 3 bytes = 4 chars so 57 bytes = one full line. Any multiple of 3 avoids adding filler characters '=' to make up the encoded 4 characters and multiples of 57 give minimal line endings. 4095 also worked but 4104 is just the nearest multiple of 57 to 4096.
