If we know that qmail doesn't change the input string:
- either sendmail does change it,
- or the Java applet sends different text to each MTA...
I don't know that sendmail is going to muck with the
contents of the email - we are talking data, not header
or address right?-)
But - as Paul Schin
Paul,
Thank you for your response.
Please do not take offence at my conclusion that qmail
is partly to blame. While my familiarity with MTAs

To add to the info,
I am being forced to work with a legacy accounting
system with a mail client which is incapable of adding
MIME headers to emails as appropriate. When qmail
recieves the e-mail it strips out the £ (Sterling

We currenlty send the messages to a
Dear all,
I need to be able to recieve 8bit MIME characters
through my qmail server. It currently turns them all
into a hash (or pound - #) sign. I need to resolve
