Wrong answer. x-msdownload could be a banned component of a message, but is not a bad header. Bad headers are those violating RFC2822 or MIME structure (MIME::Parser Perl module) this is (mostly) not configurable.

Right. > The specific error is: > X-Amavis-Alert: BAD HEADER MIME error: error: SeveredPreamble: > unexpected end of preamble [in multipart message]; > EOSToken: EOF; EOSType: EOF This diagnose is produced by MIME::Parser. In its opinion the MIME structure of the message is broken. Your first sample came across somewhat mangled (adjecent header fields joined and wrapped), but as far I can tell, it is missing the final "------=_20061019092239_46584--" line. > I also get this problem when uploading from my linux box using firefox, no > matter what type of file I upload.
