Dick I think there is a standard... and a bit of FUD too... Most other mail systems I've seen ignore the problem... courier follows the standard and alters the mail which a sendmail or postfix system would accept by default (some people believe in a tollerant acceptance policy and a rigid sending policy)...
I run a lot of accounts and have been pressured by users to make the switch. I have had no complaints as a result. I think old mail clients (like outlook 97 / netscape communicator 4, etc.) were crashing as a result of some badly formatted messages... they have seemingly fixed this though. good luck. m/ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of dick hoogendijk Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2003 10:15 AM To: courier-users Cc: courier-users Subject: Re: [courier-users] Re: bofhbadmime=accept pre/contra On 07 Oct Sam Varshavchik wrote: > The invalid MIME coding may cause a problem with the IMAP mail client. > Or, it may not. You'll have to experiment to find out for yourself. OK, we use the courier imap too, so I guess it'll be wiser to leave things as they are? -- dick -- http://www.nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.8 ++ Debian GNU/Linux (Woody) + Nai tiruvantel ar vayuvantel i Valar tielyanna nu vilya ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
