Hm - just consider the possibility that the problem is an INVALID "EOL" sequence.
SMTP requires a CR/LF combination at the end of a line. But, some operating systems (like UNIX) just use a "LF", some just a "CR" (at some time MACs), and sometimes programmers accidentally code "LF/CR". There have been cases, where a software tries to "fix" invalid EOF sequences, by replacing a single "CR" (not followed by a LF) or a single "LF" (not preceded by a "CR"), with a CR/LF - and the fails in the case of a LF/CR sequence becoming a LF/CR/LF or a CR/LF/CR - which another application might interpret as two EOLs. My point - make sure you inspect the original file using a HEX editor for single CR or single LF characters - THIS might be the ultimate source of the problem and the trigger of all subsequent issues. -----Original Message----- From: community@mailsbestfriend.com [mailto:community@mailsbestfriend.com] On Behalf Of Don Winsauer Sent: Wednesday, May 11, 2016 1:22 AM To: community@mailsbestfriend.com Subject: [MBF] Re: Call external batch file from Declude Ok, Here ya go... For this customer of mine, I am scanning all their email for spam and viruses and then forwarding the email to their Exchange server. It appears when Microsoft's Office 365 Exchange servers find an attachment in the email, they are adding a header: x-microsoft-exchange-diagnostics: 1;CO1PR04MB554;5:uIPmx3dm3PK/UJjiWJfcZKKgooCYjfXMN/RlsoZaA9l50T3ppyfEZL7hV 0/b9lb2ameTAtuhrpdbSvHbPrOz6rkwXwybtN0NfVio9xbvrCXGemr4ElqtHO7qnlQgSVNFfs7 pQvr3Ik3TWCeV433olw==;24:8DgC4bge5fDd2sgE3gKjyQSudpsCI2J68HI5XChAq6H/evgOT mn6pKnNx0FQS6aorGkRqORLzQaFVhM43MyWtb0BfiaV29+KboF8dNmBWRE=;7:FH8DkU9P/vAA 2cZf0DCaqz5AJcXiy0ygl+Y8/LrpsGe5MAcP4A/EFx9j+hYJmORCaEjCtA/JWl80qdNRjjvo0h L4LnEt++q1KirBBcD5K1ervta5qLh42AsICnwR2hakHCxbOjf6EdMQtgxf/6M0Vj8JMmSuW08/ X0mL49SuD3kM8YHnljh4K8dAvOo+bCu3 It is being added by several of his vendors (different domains). All from *.outlook.com servers. The SMTP32.exe process of my IMail (v8.15) sees the data in this header and for some reason is adding a blank line after the header. This server has been in production since v8.15 was current. It has processed millions of emails and this is the first time I've had a problem like this. I grabbed the raw email in the D*.smd file and all looks good. In my email client, it looks good. When that file is processed and forwarded to my customer's Exchange server, it shows headers in the body of the email. It took me quite awhile removing headers until I figured out which one it was. With the help of a colleague, I had IMail send the email to their email server (non-Exchange). He grabbed the raw email file from their end and we saw the extra blank line that was throwing everything off. SMTP32.EXE is inserting a blank line after this header. While it is a long header, it is not the longest header in the email. I find that when I remove this header, all works fine. So that is what I am trying to do. I have been working on this issue for two weeks. It took me until tonight to determine that SMTP32.exe was at fault. During my research, I even removed Declude from the chain and things still failed. I am trying to fix the problem with the tools I have at hand.
