For a mailing list, I get errors like (the xxx are ascii chars replaced by me):
1 1.38 207.244.124.137 failed after I sent the message./Remote host said: 550
Syntax error in 'Cc' header: malformed address: "xxx Mack"
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>/
1 1.53 212.208.194.252 failed after I sent the message./Remote host said: 550
Syntax error in 'Cc' header: malformed address: "xxx Mack"
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>/
It seems that hosts (mainly running EXIM) are parsing messages and rejecting non
rfc822-compliant messages. Other message have been rejected because of
an incorrectly formatted From: header, others because they contain chars > 127 (e.g.
iso-8859-1 umlauts).
To me this seems brain-dead, but maybe that's a lack of understanding on my part. Are
there any redeeming features to this type of activity?
Enlightenment highly appreciated.
