Agreed. >From what I can see, the original 8BITMIME extension was 8-bit message content, but has been updated to include 8-bit SMTP transaction envelopes as well. It might be a mismatch between that over time (eg postfix changed at 2.4.5 as well) Rob ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
