It is GWIA 7.0 - the incoming messages are ending up in the GWPROB directory, 
and are reported as bad messages.  If I remove one of the inline attachments 
and re-submit the message, it is delivered correctly.

At first I suspected an issue with the mail content rather than with GWIA, but 
one of the cases is a newsletter from dabs.com which I also receive at home via 
Sendmail/MIMEDefang and Exchange.  It has no issue going through these systems, 
and dabs.com probably sends a million messages per week, so any standards issue 
with their messages would be picked up fairly quickly.

It doesn't help that I can find very little detail on Novell's site about what 
is supported or which areas have known issues....

Best Wishes,

Paul.
