So it is SA screwing the mailbox up with a malformed email. I just needed to know in case we get any complaints from customers.

XMail handle both \r\n and \n w/out any problem. The problem eventually are remote mail servers and clients. For messages entering through SMTP there is no problem since XMail do add the correct \r\n line termination since it reads line by line. For messages entering though spool/local it does not, so if the message has a wrong line termination (\n) it'll remain as is. Here the problem though is that SA sometimes screws up and lives the line completely truncated by chaging the message underneath XMail. - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
