Many mail servers now reject executable files, such as .bat, .reg, .exe etc. Remember I sent a registry key to this list earlier? My first attempt was to attach the file rot13.reg, which was rejected by our very own Worldless on the grounds that it was executable. MDaemon suggested that I zip the file, which I did, and it went through eventually. Having said that, yes, I can imagine that the X-Mailer header being interpreted as a .bat file attachment may be the problem here. I hope it's just a setting in their server software... -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste. 99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name.
