All File Attachments Are Incorrectly Sent As .txt Files

[jonking]

All file attachments regardless of type and extension are always recieved as a .txt file.

Any ideas why this would be happening?

Thanks,

Do you have the following in your form tag?

enctype="multipart/form-data"

Yes. I have used the script for years and years but never the attachment options. I cannot find in the code anything that would use the correct MIME type based on the file attachment extension.

Can you post a link to the form, or at least post the entire form contents here?

Removed code sample due to found fix.

Have you allowed file uploads within formmail?

define("FILEUPLOADS",true);

You aren't using conditions inside an INI file to limit the types allowed are you?

Are these very large files?

You might want to create a $FILE_REPOSITORY if you haven't already and see if the file type remains correct.

Just throwing out ideas.

>No conditions in the INI
>I am testing with very small files, file size not an issue.

I will try the file repository to help narrow down the "search area".

You may also want to run phpinfo() and see if uploads are allowed on the server.

You might want to hire Russell (the Tectite formmail developer) to assist you. You can subscribe for support in the thread below.
