|    Problem with tossing mail from Hotdoged/    |

      * Originally in hotdoged       * Crossposted in ru.unix.ftn       * Crossposted in ru.husky       Dear Sergey,              12 Sep 15 13:17, you wrote to me:               VS>> A point of mine is trying to use Hotdoged/2.11/Android and        VS>> jNode/Android. I receive a .pkt from him, but both HPT 1.9 and        VS>> catpkt consider the packet empty. However, when I look inside the        VS>> packet with less or hd, I see the message there all right. What        VS>> could that be? I have stored the example .pkt and am ready to        VS>> produce it to anyone interested in the problem. Does anyone care        VS>> to have a look, just let me know. By "catpkt" I mean that from        VS>> Eduard Dulich (2:464/98).               SP> Can you show the hpt error message from the log, please.              There is no hpt error message. It just says in the log '0 netmail messages'.              Thanks to Michael Dukelsky 2:5020/1042, he has already identified the problem.       The pkt file contains a packet password which is too long: 11 characters,       which causes the whole packet to be garbled and ignored.              Hotdoged should not have allowed a packet password longer than 8 characters.       When I removed the excess characters from the password in a hex editor       (allowing all the remaining bytes to shift), the packet became normal and       recognizable by the tosser.              This is probably a bug in Hotdoged.              Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN       --- GoldED+/BSD 1.1.5-b20110223-b20110223        * Origin: Ulthar (2:5005/49)    |
