Me too. But paypal is hardly alone in this; I just got another - and, like Paul's, it can't seem to make up its mind whether it's an ignorebot or not: [many other headers snipped] > From: [email protected] > Subject: Thank You > To: [email protected] > Message-id: <[email protected]> > > > --Boundary_(ID_MslZnpszavRKZWnl7x4ckA) > Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII > Content-language: en-US > Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT > > This disposition report relates to a message you sent with the following > header > fields: > [quote of Message-id:, Date:, From:, To:, Subject: from my spam report] > > The message has been received by [email protected], however, > it has not been displayed.

First it says they aren't reading it, then it says they do accept it. (I suppose these technically aren't in conflict - they accept it but don't "display" it - but in context I think they are.) I sent them a note pointing out the conflict. We'll see if I get a non-canned response; in at least one past case, doing so did draw a non-canned reply agreeing that the wording could use some touchup, so there is hope (though perhaps not much hope in paypal's case :-รพ). /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
