So, let me get this straight. You don't want your firewall to conform to the RFC's, yet you complain when Exchange doesn't like it?
Unless you have a very, and I mean VERY, brain dead firewall, there is no reason that it can't enforce text wrapping. I don't buy that having the firewall enforcing the wrapping limits will open you to buffer overflows, either. I'm interested in what kind of firewall it is, so I know to never buy one. -------------------------------------------------------------- Roger D.
