It is possible that the user's MUA that sends the pdf attachment doesn't properly identify its content-type as application/pdf. If that is the case, and you can't convince the user to use an intelligent MUA, you have to accept whatever content-type that MUA is assigning to the attachment (maybe application/octet-stream - aargh...) and then hope you can filter all the garbage without adverse impact by putting say pdf and txt in pass_filename_extensions. First, you have to see a raw message from the user with an attached pdf and see what the part headers are. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
