Hey,

im testing gallery2 on our website.

But the "Send as e-card" doesn't work correct. The mails are sent, but the picture is not attached and the mail looks just aweful ... :D

I found the problem with the forum-search but no solution:

http://gallery.menalto.com/node/58223
http://gallery.menalto.com/node/48304

The only setting I found is at the e-card-module. But setting it from "HTML" to "Plain Text Only" doesn't change a thing.

Thanks for any help !

PS.: This is how the mail looks:

i just tested this in g2.2 with g2.2's ecard module and html emails.
it works for me.

i know that there have been some related fixes since g2.1.2. maybe g2.2 works for you.

Hello valiant,

thanks for your reply !

Actually I did not want to start the gallery with a ReleaseCandidate ...
This problem might be fixed in there, but who knows what other problems I'll get ... :)

Is there a fix for this problem in 2.1.2 ?
(Is it a problem of 2.1.2 at all ... ? Can't imagine that a stable release has such a "defect" ... )

I am having the same problem. The ecard is sent but it seems to be in the wrong format or something. I get the same problem. No attached photo and scrambled text. Anyone have any ideas.

Ok, I found the solution. Don't add anything to the BCC field in eCard administration. Seems to be a bug maybe.

Confirmed. With the BCC field left blank it works fine, but if an address is BCC'd then the formatting goes bad.

This appears to be due to a bug which is inserting an extra blank line before the Content-Type header if there is a BCC header. Of course the BCC header is not shown at the receiving end, but here are the last few displayed headers of two examples:

Without BCC:

Date: Mon, 19 May 2008 11:24:00 -0500
From: Jon Etkins <jon@****.net>
Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
	boundary="=_90d4c62bb3394214410448265f861cec"

--=_90d4c62bb3394214410448265f861cec
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

With BCC:

Date: Mon, 19 May 2008 11:30:00 -0500
From: Jon Etkins <jon@****.net>

Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
	boundary="=_69bb74af2bec3e1c4857ce3db9969c5f"

--=_69bb74af2bec3e1c4857ce3db9969c5f
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Since a blank line denotes the end of the header block, the Content-Type header is being treated as part of the message body, with the resultant failure to identify the various MIME parts.

Are there any solutions to this problem yet, other than not using a bcc?

Hey,

I found this post after posting here: http://gallery.menalto.com/node/71271
This solved my problem with SMTP (I can live without the BCC feature), but still I'm puzzled why it does not work with PHPMail and Firefox...
