[Xymon] Getting "ATT0001.bin" attachments sometimes -- MAILC fix is already in place

I think you shouldn't escape the quotes:

MAILC="tr -d "\\001\\004\\015" | mail"

I suspect that without the escapes, the variable won't have the right definition, since quotes are used to contain the value ... although it's possible that *with* the escapes, it won't have the right definition either.

It's starting to sound like I need to write a script so that no special characters are required. An ugly hack, but I think it will work ... so I will go ahead and do that.

A better option might be to create a feature where we can define a list of characters that should be stripped out of email text before it is sent, and have Xymon itself handle that.

Thanks, Shawn
