UTF-8/Base64/intl. chars = trouble
> X-MIME-Autoconverted: from base64 to 8bit by li***.members.linode.com id ***
(I marked sensitive stuff with stars). So, these messages have completely lost the newlines! All the lines are concatenated. All the other recipients of the message (not on the server) receive everything fine. If the message is sent without international characters, it is also fine.
So, do we have some kind of a known problem in Base64/UTF-8 handling by the mail components, or what?
Any help is greatly appreciated, because this actually affects a number of mailing lists that I host…

Compare the raw message source in your gmail outbox (if gmail lets you view the raw message) to the raw message in your inbox. If they're not the same then its time to look at your MTA.
I'm not familiar with RH8 - what MTA does it use?

What are the mail components?

So, this is it, in a nutshell. I have replaced the binary with the 8.12.11, and the problem went away.
Hope this is useful to somebody.
