From my understanding of RFC 1870, there is nothing wrong with a message with a content of zero size.
One option to trap such messages would be to use the body_checks postfix filter, but that's "expensive". Another option that might be more efficient would be to use a procmail filter on the mail host side to check the message content. The following works if put in your .procmailrc file: :0 * ! B ?? ... zero-length-body-folder or if you want to just throw it away, :0 * ! B ?? ... /dev/null I'm not sure why you have a problem with zero-length messages in the first place -- is it a spam or DOS issue? --Tobias Benny Pedersen wrote: > On Thu, November 29, 2007 18:18, John Beaver wrote: > > >> Please start a new thread for new topics. >> > > i belive its related to the thread here > > >> Most MUA's do not report this (outlook, OE are two).
