This issue has been classified to be investigated in the next release. We have no date planned yet for that release.

Did you check the forums and on the Microsoft website? There might be a solution already.

If you want, you can hire us to investigate and if possible build a solution. http://www.phplist.com/paid_support [^]

There is a problem in MS Exchange. A fix has been published by Microsoft. We are however still trying to find a workaround, for those users that are on systems that are not updated (bad boys! somehow I keep getting unsolicited offers)

There is a tool called Advanced PDF Repair. I have used it to repair many corrupt PDF files on my damaged disks successfully. Its homepage is http://www.datanumen.com/apdfr/ [^]

Maybe this can help.

I tried an experiment. I send a pdf file renamed to abc.test to a client with the exchange server issue. Your code sent it as an octet-stream. When the client renamed it, he claimed to still have the problem. This suggests a relatively sophisticated bug at the MSoft end. Looking at the MS note, KB937625, it appears to be an outlook only bug.

I noted that topic 9916 says something about a space character being an issue. Can anyone confirm that?

A working patch was already submitted in #15164. It just needs to be applied officially.
