Christian, Thanks for the analysis!
Brett, Whenever possible, you should send the whole message, preferably as an attachment, redacting only personally identifying information. This includes display names and comments attached to mail addresses as well as the addresses themselves in From, To, Cc, and Bcc header fields as well as their "Resent-*" versions, Received header fields (which frequently contain addresses or personal domains), and the Message-ID header field, which frequently contains an identifying domain, and of course such information in the text. The method of redaction should be substitution of addresses and domains like "John Doe <j...@example.com>" or other text as appropriate, and note any time you remove characters other than the usual ASCII characters. Of course, it's up to you and the people potentially identified by the message how much effort you want to put into it, this is the ideal from our point of view in order to check for the kinds of issues Christian describes. Back to Christian, who writes: > Sending text/html emails is ok. > But using "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit" with UTF-8 content can get > it dumped if: > * there is any character not ASCII in the whole email > * there is any line with more than 1000 characters in the whole email Nice catch! > Not sure, if that is your problem, as you redacted the contents. Seems unlikely, because AFAIK Mailman doesn't check line length AFAIK, and you'd get a UnicodeError on anything non-ASCII, which would show up in the "error" log. Also, I suppose the contents were the original "please tell me what you think" message that presumably passed through the list. Still, an "ideally redacted" message would help to confirm.
