Sandy, Shrug. Never felt the desire to run dependency walker on it. I said it was a guess. I said it was circumstantial. Maybe in the end, I was hoping it was some silly language limitation that they didn't know how to get around rather than think it was a bug or even a bad assumption on the part of the company, whose tool scans my email. Don't know which would be worse.
I do not know if anyone else has, but I did report the issue to Declude. I thought their response was interesting: Snip ------------------------------------- The fact that this email contains only linefeeds and no carriage returns shows that it is a seriously broken email. The Subject: line was added by Declude because the action called for SPAM-WARN to be added, and Declude could not locate the actual subject line. Declude is not alone in having serious problems with these emails. IMail itself put headers at the end of the message because it could not figure out where the real headers ended. At some point we will have to rewrite incoming messages to make sure that lone linefeeds do not exist; however, that will incur a lot of overhead. It would have made much more sense for IMail to have done this as the message was arriving, prior to writing it to disk in the first place. ------------------------------------- Snip Do not know why they would want to rewrite the message. They should add a test name for the condition and say it failed the test.
