PMDF System Manager's Guide

PMDF has the ability to convert various non-standard message formats to MIME via the Yes CHARSET-CONVERSION; see Section 6.1. In particular, the RFC 1154 format uses a non-standard Encoding: header. However, some gateways emit incorrect information on this header line, with the result that sometimes it is desirable to ignore this header. The ignoreencoding keyword instructs PMDF to ignore any Encoding: header. (Note that unless PMDF has a CHARSET-CONVERSION enabled, such headers will be ignored in any case.) The interpretencoding keyword instructs PMDF to pay attention to any Encoding: header, if otherwise configured to do so, and is the default.
