Thanks a lot Noel, This is a Legacy system and I'm trying to get the control
of this, I remove this option and I don't see any problem, I'm going to
monitor the logs and let you know if the issue disappear.

I search in Google but I can't find the man (available options) for
altermime

Regards
Jesus

I review my disclaimer.sh and I found a strange option
"--force-for-bad-html"

Avoid options you don't understand. No, I don't know what
this option does either, but it looks like a likely candidate
for the problem.

Thank you.

In our test mechanisms, we also encountered such a problem. We had
setup using the Postfix+AlterMIME HOWTO with a Bash script which calls
AlterMIME and finally sends off the email with SENDMAIL of Postfix.

We found that attachments were randomly getting dropped.

Upon further investigation, we found that it was not a alterMIME
problem, but a problem with the calling of "SENDMAIL" Script.

When there are emails where there is a line starting with "." as the
only content of line, "SENDMAIL" stops reading anything after that.
This makes it seem like attachments are getting dropped.

To fix this, use the parameter "-i" with SENDMAIL. This will make
sendmail read all the way to end of the file and fix the issue.

I hope this helps.
