so use 45-byte chunks, instead of one-byte chunks. but why are you using UU encoding in a nonstandard way ? why not just use the "uu" module to do the chunking for you? the third example on this page might be helpful: http://effbot.org/librarybook/uu.htm (if you don't want the standard begin/end lines, it's probably a better idea to use base64 encoding instead...) </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
