Must have been very old times :-) Even RFC-821, and of course it's 'going to be replacement' RFC-2821, state a SMTP has to prepend a period if a line starts with one when sending out the message and has to strip the dot if it receives a line starting with one (Section 4.5.2) :-) And RFC-821 is from August 1982 :-) -- Regards Peter Palmreuther mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (The Bat! v1.60q on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2) Da trouble wit computers is, dey got no sense of humor. ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60q FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://bt.ritlabs.com
