I did actually set up the BADHEADERS filter last night and I just caught a false positive (though a BADHEADER positive). I don't have the error being written to the E-mail headers, but I looked it up on Scott's tool's page from the code in the log file and got back "This E-mail has a made-up header that does not follow the standard RFC format for an E-mail header." Any ideas??? Could it have barfed on the ~50 addresses in the To line???

This is valid content and seems to have been sent through HotMail??? It doesn't look strange to me (but what do I know).

I'm guessing the bogus header was what seemed to be part of the To: headers. For example:


        To: [EMAIL PROTECTED],
                [EMAIL PROTECTED],
        [EMAIL PROTECTED],
                [EMAIL PROTECTED],
                [EMAIL PROTECTED]

contains a bogus header ("[EMAIL PROTECTED]," is treated as a header separate from the "To:" header).
