[snip] | From my point of view, it would be helpful, if the User can | switch such 8-Bit / Unicode test in the header on/off. Today | only the whole Headertest can be switched on/off. RFC 2822 explicitly forbids 8-bit characters in SMTP mail headers. However, your mail client and/or mail server *can* use the encoding protocols specified in RFC 2047 to encode/decode 8-bit characters at both ends of the transmission. In other words, your mail server needs to be configured to perform RFC 2047 encoding, so that your 8-bit characters get encoded properly before submitting them to another MTA via SMTP. Likewise, your mail server needs to decode these 8-bit characters in mail that you receive. During the SMTP portion of the transmission, though, the mail *must* be 7-bit. ~ e.g. sender (8-bit) --> SMTP (7-bit) --> receiver (8-bit) If your mail server is configured to perform RFC 2047 encoding/decoding, your 8-bit headers should be properly encoded to 7-bits for the SMTP transmission, and then decoded to 8-bits again at the receiving end. By doing this, you avoid the "bad header" filter, and make everyone happy :) - -- Robert LeBlanc <rjl-fBBSUI5vRLiWd6l5hS35sQ@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Renaissoft, Inc.

This was intended originally as a means of excluding certain domains from user-autocreation, but it works just as well for specific e-mail addresses, since it matches its patterns against the entire e-mail address. This feature, as I mention, has not been properly documented, and I believe only one or two people have actually used it, quite some time ago, so it hasn't received a lot of testing. - -- Robert LeBlanc <rjl-fBBSUI5vRLiWd6l5hS35sQ@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Renaissoft, Inc.
