educated guess:

that error message is signaled by the as-ascii-char function in
rfc2388. as-ascii-char is called to convert the bytes in a mime part's
headers into a character, so i'm going to assume that this error is
occuring when trying to decode the file's name (i can't think of
another mime header which would have non-7-bit-asci characters in
it).

so, question #1: what's the name of the file? if you change it
something using only ascii chars does the problem go away?

as a hack fix until we figure out if this is the real issue and, if so,
what encoding is being used, use this:

(defun as-ascii-char (byte)
  "Assuming BYTE is an ASCII coded character retun the corresponding character."
  (code-char byte))

instead of the as-ascii-char function in rfc2388/source/rfc2388.lisp

thanks, but at this point i don't think the file is the problem.
