Hi all,

I just had one of our clients tell me that email from us was cached in their
mailscanner because the email isn't MIME compliant (RFC 1341).

<rfc1341>
The encapsulation boundary following the last body part is a distinguished
delimiter that indicates that no further body parts will follow.  Such a
delimiter  is  identical  to  the previous  delimiters,  with the addition
of two more hyphens at the end of the line:
  --gc0p4Jq0M2Yt08jU534c0p--
<end rfc1341>

It turned out they were quite right - Outlook happily placed an "End"
delimiter between the HTML text of the email and a word attachment. Is this
a known bug? I've done som testing, and this appears to happen whenever I
send a HTML email with an attachment. We are using Outlook 2000 (build
9.0.0.6627).

Should I report this to Microsoft or is it not worth the trouble?

Thanks.

/Rasmus
