I did the following Content-Transfer-Encoding failure analysis: Failure rates for message top level encoding type +--------------------------------------------------------+ | enctype total bodyfail pct | |--------------------------------------------------------| | 8bit 31 25 80.6 | | 5461 1236 22.6 | | binary 5 1 20.0 | | quoted-printable 1188 179 15.0 | | base64 32 3 9.3 | | 7bit 1465 106 7.2 | +--------------------------------------------------------+ Based on my PCN, 8bit does have a high rate of failure, but they are a very small amount of the grand total. The encoding types; QP, base64 and 7bit offers the better lower failure rate. Except for the 3 base64 fails, but I can't tell if they originated that way or not. I will take a SWAG that these represent direct messages and were not going thru a list. It would be interesting to see what Murray can show for his volume collection. -- Hector Santos, CTO http://www.santronics.com http://santronics.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
