1. I don't have the original message because my maildrop filter sends all list posts from MSFT "email" programs to /dev/null. 2. That particular bug I've seen quoted in your reply to the original message is an Outlook [Express]-specific thing. I haven't seen it produced by the Lotus Notes client (at least as broken as OE, possibly more) or anything else. 2. I'm not aware of any method (and doubt there is one) to make Outlook send an RFC 822 message. All it can create is it's crippled idea of MIME. 4. You have already shown that you (falsely) think MIME email == HTML email. 2. 3. and 4. lead me to the conclusion that it *was* a MIME message, despite 1. -- If you cc me or remove the list(s) completely I'll most likely ignore your message. see http://www.eyrie.org./~eagle/faqs/questions.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
