I hadn't realised qmail is > that borked] Yeap, the qmail used by my ISP doesn't seem to include a Message-ID in the headers.. (and I suppose my case is not so unusual..) Regarding that Message-ID is mentionned as *optionnal* in the SMTP RFC, does it mean there's no strict rules about its use? The MUA seems (to me) to be a good candidate in the mailing process for handle this issue: including a message-id as soons as the client is sending his message would be a good guarantee for the rest of the process, isn't it? (it seems to be the choice of netscape messenger and M$ outlook.. sorry for the comparaison.. ;-]) _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.helixcode.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
