The list is just simple asci text with each line 1k to 5k long. To exclude networking errors I first copy the file to a unique local
temporary file and work on it ...

A workaround is to add a CRLF at the beginning of the body text. This works for me.
That's useful to know Pud, thanks.

Please set a better thread title. "Is it me?" tells nothing about the content of the thread.

Ya, I’ve already been told off for that :oops:

It’s just that the other couple of ...

A few simple lines of code to send an email.
If I add an attachement the body is ignored.
