[Haskell-cafe] Sending email

Wed Apr 27 07:14:15 UTC 2016

Hi Daniel,
I have another issue when using HaskellNet. It seems the way the library
sends email is causing extra spaces and line breaks to be inserted in my
HTML emails, which completely messes up the inline CSS styles. When I
turned *sslLogToConsole = True*, this is the kind of output I get in the
log:

*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "<!DOCTYPE html>\r"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "\r\n"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "<html><body><table style=3D\"border: 1px solid
black; border-collapse: colla=\r"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "\r\n"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "pse; margin: 25px 0; width: 100%;\"><tr><th
style=3D\"background-color: #072a=\r"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "\r\n"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "2d; color: white; font-weight: bold; border-right:
1px solid white; padding=\r"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "\r\n"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: ": 5px 10px; width: 33%;\">Committer</th>\r"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "\r\n"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "<th style=3D\"background-color: #072a2d; color:
white; font-weight: bold; bo=\r"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "\r\n"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "rder-right: 1px solid white; padding: 5px 10px;
width: 33%;\">SHA1</th>\r"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "\r\n"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "<th style=3D\"background-color: #072a2d; color:
white; font-weight: bold; bo=\r"*
*HaskellNet-SSL SEND: "\r\n"*

As you can see, extra line breaks are being inserted right in the middle of
the HTML/CSS, which completely messes it up. Is there a way to prevent
that? The only option I could find was *Settings* *sslMaxLineLength*, but
setting that to a high number doesn't solve the problem.

Thanks,
David
