Not really garbled, though I'm not sure if it's compliant.

=2E is the same thing as a period. I think they call this MIME encoding, though I'm not sure. I also see that they are marking the To,
From and Subject as US-ASCII, which is totally useless, possibly
non-compliant, and very, very spammy. I've seen other Declude tests fail with this E-mail component as well, BADHEADERS for instance, and maybe SPAMHEADERS as well. Based on this stuff, I would dump the product for fear of messages not getting delivered. Seriously.

Hello, All,
I have a question that's unrelated to DJM but related to e-mail.

We do some web hosting for a handful of customers.  One of our web hosting
customers has a form on their web site which their web developers have set
up to send an e-mail whenever the form is filled out.  On our web server we
have a e-mail component called JMail setup which creates and sends the
e-mail.  According to our customer, our customer's customer and our web
developers, somewhere along the way the message is getting garbled text in
the headers.  Here's the header for an example message that they sent to
me...

I _sort of_ see what they mean.  Although to me it doesn't look garbled.
Just different.  Specifically in the From, the Subject and the To.

When the web site user fills out a form they are seeing this in the header
of the confirmation mail that they receive.  I personally don't think this
is being sent in the original e-mail but instead is how the receipients
e-mail client is choosing to display the e-mail message.

Does anyone know what causes the above to occur?

Thanks In Advance,
Dan Geiser [EMAIL PROTECTED]
