    Message lines too long

    FWIW, I daily forward mails that originate as cron jobs on my server that have lines more than double the 78 max (because bank statements), and those messages go through fine. It's just MS crud that causes the issues ...

    Message lines too long

    This issue still persists, Seems to be when I try to forward mails that originated from Microsoft mail system. A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed: message has lines too long for...

    Message lines too long

    70? AFAIK standard as 78, been using that since forever. RFC 2822 contains this text about line lengths, which is where this likely comes from: There are two limits that this standard places on the number of characters in a line. Each line of characters MUST be no more than...

    Message lines too long

    Hi This is occurring more frequently now when I forward messages. Why is that? Using Kmail since 2005. This message was created automatically by mail delivery software. A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following...

    Issues with smtp this morning?

    Last time, they fixed it by rebooting the server. Still not working. "Failed to transport message. The remote host closed the connection Failed to store result in item. Item query returned empty result set " Whatever that means.

    Silly me. Hetzner not in the sending loop. Box is hosted with you, but my emails are with Hetzner. The program creates an email, To: user1, CC:user2 and myself. User1 and User2 are at same domain, not mine. It *looks* like the mailer is sending the messages to user1 and 2 first, via hornet...

    No, I send mail from my server via account at Afrihost. But saw it connecting to hornet, which was "curious" ... When people say "bulk email for promotions" I read "spam". It's just cron job outputs. Thanks, Ian

    Message line too long

    The long lines are in the headers. I can forward the message "inline" which only forwards the message text, but forwarding as attachment drags the incoming message headers along, and they are the problem. RFC 2822 is clear: Header lines MUST not be longer then 998 characters or be properly...

    Message line too long

    Kmail, since 2005. It is set to wordwrap at column 78, but the message does contain long lines visible with View Source, for ARC-Seal: ARC-Message-Signature: x-microsoft-antispam: Those lines are solid hex so guess it does not try to "word" wrap ... Is This MS breaking the internet again...
