Below is the code from https://github.com/andrewpuch/aws-ses-node-js-examples where there is an example to send and email with attachment,
I have modified the code to fetch a image file from aws s3 and and send it with mail as attachment, when i did it for an text file it work perfectly, but when I have sent an image, in the mail I was not able to see the image since it is corrupted.
when I tried opening with apple photo app it has shown that meta data is missing, also I have added Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 in the header of the mail, when I tried with utf8, utf-8 and UTF-8 in Content-Transfer-Encodingin the header I got the below response from aws
{ "message": "Unknown encoding: utf8", "code": "InvalidParameterValue", "time": "2017-03-14T08:42:43.571Z", "requestId": "2e220c33-0892-11e7-8a5a-1114bbc28c3e", "statusCode": 400, "retryable": false, "retryDelay": 29.798455792479217 } My modified code to send an image attachment with mail, I even tried encoding the buffer to utf-8, base-64,wasted enough time on this, no clue why it is corrupted, if some one have done this before, help me
