The mail was sended from devloop.de to sf.net back to devloop.de. But I think the problem also only occurs if the last hop is a courier mta. If courier sends such a mail to another mail server the problem resolves itselfs because the double dot will be unescaped to a single dot by the other mta. > Judging from CVS, Courier has had the same logic to strip leading '.' > characters for 8 years, since its initial check-in.

May be Gentoo has patched something away ;-) regards and thanks Daniel ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
