Jonas, When I programmed my logfile analyzer, I found several different cases: for remote deliveries: 01:01 05:06 SMTP-(000001D7) rdeliver test.ch [EMAIL PROTECTED] (1) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 1266 01:06 06:55 SMTP-(000001D3) rdeliver compec.ch multiple (3) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 1794 01:01 18:11 SMTP-(00000156) rdeliver gmx.ch [EMAIL PROTECTED] (1) <userm> 1399 02:14 12:19 SMTP-(000000EC) rdeliver compec.ch [EMAIL PROTECTED] (1) <1/00 396 or for local deliveries: 01:06 11:24 SMTP-(000001DE) ldeliver mail.colax.ch test2-main (1) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 551600 01:02 10:04 SMTP-(0000006D) ldeliver mail.collect.ch test1-main (1) <> 3864 01:26 23:25 SMTP-(00000162) ldeliver mail.xyz.ch test3-main (1) <@@> 8531 It seems that if the sender's address is malformed, it cannot be interpreted and enclosed into <>correctly. You may work around the missing > by scanning the line for the next occurrence of " " (blank) which is usually the delimiter to the next parameter (as long as the logfile isn't truncated). Hope this helps, Marius -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: Jonas Fornander [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 16.

Why does the closing ">" disappear in the email address? Look at the log below: 03:15 22:00 SMTPD(02B400B2) [209.247.184.61] connect 210.233.22.142 port 10006 03:15 22:00 SMTPD(02B400B2) [210.233.22.142] EHLO [192.168.1.14] 03:15 22:00 SMTPD(02B400B2) [210.233.22.142] MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 03:15 22:00 SMTPD(02B400B2) [210.233.22.142] RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 03:15 22:00 SMTPD(02B400B2) [210.233.22.142] ERR mail.gadelius.com invalid user <[EMAIL PROTECTED] Why isn't there a closing ">" on my email address? Is this a bug in IMail or in the mail client (Outlook Express) or the OS (Macintosh) or the language (Japanese) or.....??? This message can't be sent without the closing ">". Please someone help!
