FYI, there’s a typo in your first code example, where skip_before_filter is on the wrong line. :)

There is a mistake in second line. “:if =>” should be “:if =>”

You can encode directly with cURL. You can use ‘curl -F’ or ‘curl –data-urlencode’.
If you want to receive attachments the curl approach has one disadvantage. The length of commandline parameters is restricted. If the mail is to big, curl will throw an error. What’s a good solution to receive attachments =< 5mb with a rails application that scales?

Thank you Steve.
I tried it in the controller which doesn’t work.
Escaping in the receiver script works.

For example I changed:

`curl -d “message=#{STDIN.read}” http://localhost/incoming_messages`

to:

`curl -d “message=#{CGI.escape(STDIN.read)}” http://localhost/incoming_messages`

What do you mean with url encoding? Where should this happen?
Thanks
