We are sending only text messages to the list. I don't see how this would apply. We have Mailman installed on a Suse 9.1 box. I saw a post about language making problems.

The messages may appear to be plain text, but they may be sent in a MIME bodypart type that makes it difficult to handle them well. This is especially likely if you have overseas clients sending e-mail to a mailing list hosted in English. In this case, this is a problem with MIME, not HTML.

To be certain as to what is going on, we'd need to see complete copies of sample e-mail messages that go through okay as compared to messages that fail, with all headers intact, etc....

All messages fail to have footers. There have been posts coming from the US and from Germany. 3 of us have been posting to other email lists where the footers appear. But I hear you on the MIME problem. I can only provide you with a sample failed message with headers. I will attach a sample of one of the emails. I created it by saving as text so that all the headers are there. Is this OK? I apologize if sending to the list and to you personally is a problem. I will send only to the list if that is preferred.

Thanks for the help.

Here is a series of posts that sound like a similar problem. I put my 2 
cents in at the bottom. :-)

So far I have not found out what Suse uses to partition during the 
install.  Note that this fellow resized in advance, but made only one 
partition.  I'm sure that the installer divided that partition up into 
at least a swap and root partition.  If it did it with parted, then the 
problem could happen.
