...I've no choice but to send it to the list, as any attempt to send this person mail bounces, with some mailserver accusing me of being a spammer. No matter what I put in my 'From' header. On Sun, May 06, 2001 at 10:30:11AM -0800, Dee McKinney wrote:
Any hopes of you not sending html multi-part e-mails to the SuSE List ?
Actually that's not HTML, that's PGP. Is your mail client really calling it HTML? -tara
You are telling me you can't send mail to deem@wdm.com ? I get mail 7/24/365 at wdm.com ??? PGP is on my system, but you are sending multi-part PGP which under many flavours is MIME and therefor HTML. /Dee

In fact, I cannot. It appears that the mail exchanger for wdm.com is gallanttech.com; the mail exchanger for gallanttech.com is odinicfoundation.org. So when I tried to send mail to you I got the bounce ... while talking to gallanttech.com.:
MAIL From:<tla@elliptical.eccentricity.org> <<< 550 5.0.0 We don't accept mail from spammers 554 5.0.0 deem@wdm.com... Service unavailable
and when I tried to send a complaint to hostmaster@gallanttech.com I got a strikingly similar bounce from odinicfoundation.org. So I gave up, particularly since odinicfoundation.org has two mail exchangers that have different domain names and I expect a similar misconfiguration. 'Cause I'm pretty darn sure I'm neither a spammer nor an open relay.

It's really just text attachments. Pretty much everyone who uses Mutt and PGP is going to come across this way. I'm really not sure what I should do about it, if anything. MIME != HTML; text messages have the MIME type text/plain. -tara
