Not as certainly as expected. Eg. Thunderbird 3 has not a single line of code neither to recognize 8BITMIME nor for sending BODY= in MAIL FROM. I just checked it in mailnews/compose/src/nsSmtpProtocol.cpp for 3.1.10. But since mail.strictly_mime defaults to false it sends using transfer encoding 8bit regardless what the MTA supports. So one of the major MUAs out there cares even less as qmail about 8BITMIME;-) Greetings, Wolfgang -- Wolfgang Breyha <[email protected]> | http://www.blafasel.at/ Vienna University Computer Center | Austria -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
