    I fear that's it :(

    +.+=%;.#_}\&"^"-+%*).}%:##%}={~=~:.")&e&&s""`$''`"e

      I've hardly used it, but each time I selected the 'save' option, as I know my local system does not have mail configured, and have to send it using my mail client.

      G'day Skeeve,

      I had the same problem, and for the same reason, some years ago. The solution was as ++marto indicated: send with my own email client.

      I just wanted to add a word of caution when doing this. When I first did this, I formatted the email as (what I thought was) a single <pre> block of monospace text. My email client decided to reformat this into a multi-nested series of <pre> and <p> blocks (I wasn't aware this had happened). When I checked on RT, it said the post was too long to display and indicated an attachment (which showed this horrible, email-client-generated mess).

      The fix was to change the settings for perlbug@perl.org in my email client to send in "Plain Text Only". All subsequent posts to RT have appeared without any problems.
