I am aware of the standards. I just noticed that it seemed Courier was not rewriting the message properly when it tried to compensate for the invalid email. However, I have since discovered that the problem was not Courier, but rather the sending program which did not know how to deal with 8-bit characters. The bofh suggestion is interesting because I already have that in my setup. Based on my reading of the man pages, BOFHBADMIME=accept should cause there to be no rewriting of the message, but it seems to happen anyway. This is not a problem for me, but it is interesting that this option does not seem to do what the man pages suggest that it should. -- Bowie ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
