> Whoa, there! That's breaking the RFC. Interesting. Can't remember where I picked that bit of advice up, but it sounds nasty. I assume all mail servers will add in the missing message ID and Imail is not unique in this regard (MS' SMTP service, for example)?

Not as far as Declude is concerned. Without that patch CFMAIL-generated mail will fail the SPAMHEADERS test. Maybe AOL demerits it for the same reason. Out of curiosity, how would a self-generated unique message ID be detectable? Is that a specifically-defined sort of format? <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Versus <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --Matt Robertson-- MSB Designs, Inc. http://mysecretbase.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Sanford Whiteman Sent: Sunday, May 19, 2002 9:20 PM To: Matt Robertson Subject: Re[2]: [IMail Forum] Problem with AOL delivery > I believe Imail fixes the missing ID, but I include it anyway for > completeness' sake. > > <CFMAILPARAM > NAME="Message-ID" > VALUE="<#CreateUUID()#@#variables.domainnamehere#>"> Whoa, there! That's breaking the RFC. The Message-ID should be generated by the MTA, not by the MUA. In fact, a preexisting Message-ID is a bad header flag for some anti-spam applications. > <CFMAILPARAM > NAME="Reply-To" > VALUE="#variables.emailaddrgoeshere#"> No problem of that sort here, but if your message has a From: address, it's perfectly complete.
