The following is what appears to have caused the rejection for the last two messages from Yahoo groups. They failed the headers check snippet: "iso-.*-jp" Snippet from the maillog: ----------------- Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-2022-JP Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-2022-JP Google search seems to tell me this is used to tell the browser about the character set used? I checked the last 3 messages that are listed as being rejected that are from YG's to my IMG and the headers shown for the messages (as read off of the webpage for YG's) is: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-US-ASCII Obviously the JP charset is what is being sent to IMG or it wouldn't reject it. What is the reasoning behind including the "iso-.*-jp" as a reject in the headers? High incidence of spam from Japan? Spammers use it frequently? Something else? What is the downside or relative risk to removing this particular pattern from the headers check? Sorry for the elementary questions, but this is bugging me and I would like to at least understand it, if not correct it. -- Best regards, Grant ********** **** This E-mail scanned for viruses by EA Media Mail Services *****
