Hey ho.
I finally discovered that my face header had been omitted for months.
I had forgotten to install netpbm after a distribution upgrade and I
never noticed the missing header.
Tonight I installed netpbm and now the header is being generated, but
I can't see the image in my own posts. I'm not sure, but I think it's
too large, despite the fact that I use the usual method for including
it:
(add-to-list 'message-required-mail-headers
'(Face . (lambda ()
(gnus-face-from-file
(expand-file-name
"~/pics/MickeyFace.jpg")))))
(add-to-list 'message-required-news-headers
'(Face . (lambda ()
(gnus-face-from-file
(expand-file-name
"~/pics/MickeyFace.jpg")))))
The file is a bit complicated, I guess, and I see the following
messages when I send a post.
Length 802; trying quant 8
Length 892; trying quant 10
Length 951; trying quant 12
Length 1008; trying quant 14
It appears that quant 8 gets the size down sufficiently, but I just
don't know. Can anyone help me diagnose the problem? Thanks much.
