There are a few possible of solutions. 1) you can set SCRUBBER_USE_ATTACHMENT_FILENAME_EXTENSION = True in mm_cfg.py to use the extension of the attachment filename instead of guessing the extension from the content-type. 2) you can try to make sure that all the clients that send pdf attachments give them a content-type of application/pdf. 3) if SCRUBBER_USE_ATTACHMENT_FILENAME_EXTENSION is False, scrubber calls the Python library mimetypes.guess_all_extensions() function to map the content-type to an extension. This module in turn supplements its built in list by attempting to read several files (depending on Python version) including /etc/mime.types so if the issue is due to some content-type other than application/pdf, associating that content-type with the pdf extension in /etc/mime.types may work. - -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
