Bug#513178: kmail: Kmail in combination with ssmtp is inserting binary garbage in outbound mail
Package: kmail
Version: 4:3.5.9-5
Severity: normal
ssmtp version: 2.62-2.2
When I upgraded from Etch to Lenny my outbound mail over some size (not
huge, call it 500 bytes or so) started becoming corrupted with garbage.
Calling ssmtp from mutt from the same user account doesn't seem to have the
problem. Switching kmail to use smtp to send seems to have fixed the
problem.
