This was the bane of one of our projects to the point where Andy re-wrote ZMailIn to no-longer use XML-RPC.

Yeah, I am currently base64'ing the data, and it works.

It's to do with stuff-which-should-probably-be-entities but we never tracked down what wasn't encoding something when it should have done. I'd blame the marshalling code in xmlrpclib.py myself.

If you ever fix this, do let us know :-)

Unfortunately, I have no time to go chasing around the xmlrpc specs :( Richard -- Richard Jones richard@bizarsoftware.com.au Senior Software Developer, Bizar Software (www.bizarsoftware.com.au)
