I'm seeing weirdness in pine under cygwin. I can normally send
and receive mail just fine. When I try to send a large file as
an attachment I get two error messages displayed. During the
transmission the status bar displays:
Encoding Error "Interrupted system call"
then after a second or so it displays:
Mail not sent. Sending error: 421 SMTP connection went away!
I'm sending and receiving mail using
smtp-server=127.0.0.1/novalidate-cert
inbox-path={127.0.0.1/ssl/novalidate-cert}inbox
(there's some ssh port forwarding going on as well). I tested
the identical setup from linux and pine worked fine there. I can
receive large attachments fine, it just seems to have issues while
sending.
I tried against pine 4.58 (the current binary shipped with cygwin)
and the latest 4.64 version (which I built myself) and both showed
the same behavior.
PS: It's about time to update the cygwin pine binary, no?
