A few corrections:
First of all, the "application/octet-stream" MIME type was chosen by
your email software, not by our list software :). Listar, the list
processor we use, is set up to filter out binary attachments, and
application/octet-stream
is definitely binary, so the files were
filtered out as they should have been. If you want to post REBOL
scripts to the list (SHORT ones only, please), then you can do one
of three things:
- include them inline, i.e. not as an attachment
- add them as an attachment of MIME type "text/plain"
- add them as an attachment of MIME type "text/x-rebol"
As to the .com site and .pl scripts: our rebol.com site is hosted
by Earthlink and indeed uses some .pl scripts. This does not affect
email in any way though. All email to rebol.com is forwarded to
rebol.net (our in-office network), and .pl scripts never touch
those mails :). All of our email processing is done by Listar
(written in C) and REBOL only.
