I'm using NTEmacs 21.2 with a very recent smtpmail.el (from GNU emacs CVS, I think), and I'm setting smtpmail-queue-mail so that I don't have to wait for the server each time I finish composing a message. In order to get queueing to work, I had to set: (setq smtpmail-mail-address "dave@boost-consulting.com") Which seems wrong because it isn't documented, but without it my outgoing messages were being rejected as having no sender. However, I've received a number of complaints from people I'm corresponding with. For example, Microsoft Outlook users (I'm sure some of you will say they deserve what they get, but I need to correspond with them anyway) all say: Not sure what's up w/ your mailer. All email from you has no subject, and the cc: line appears in the body. On top of that, it's double spaced. Other people simply never see my emails; presumably they're being silently rejected by their server somewhere. And some Linux users have problems, too (see bottom of this message). The email looks fine to me on its way out; my best guess is that the DOS '\r\n' line ending convention is messing things up. The files stored in ~/Mail/queued-mail, waiting to go out. do indeed have DOS line-endings. Any clues about how to repair this would be much-appreciated! TIA, Dave -- Dave, My mail client fails to parse a lot of your mails headers. I think this is due to a blank line in the references section. See attached header for details. I am not a mail guru, but the blank line looks suspicious. --Thomas On Thursday 01 January 1970 00:59, you wrote: > Return-Path: > oo.com> X-Sieve: cmu-sieve 2.0 > Received: from mgate.uni-hannover.de (mgate.uni-hannover.de [130.75.2.3]) > by mail.ive.uni-hannover.de (Postfix on SuSE Linux 7.2 (i386)) with > ESMTP id 7843010910 for ; Tue, 5 Nov 2002 > 23:06:26 +0100 (MET) Received: from n15.grp.scd.yahoo.com by > mgate.uni-hannover.de > (PP) with SMTP; Tue, 5 Nov 2002 23:06:02 +0100 > X-eGroups-Return: > sentto-4392937-2097-1036532252-witt=ive.uni-hannover.de@returns.groups.yaho >o.com Received: from [66.218.67.200] by n15.grp.scd.yahoo.com with NNFMP; 05 > Nov 2002 21:37:32 -0000 X-Sender: dave@boost-consulting.com > X-Apparently-To: jamboost@yahoogroups.com > Received: (EGP: mail-8_2_3_0); 5 Nov 2002 21:37:30 -0000 > Received: (qmail 23018 invoked from network); 5 Nov 2002 21:37:30 -0000 > Received: from unknown (66.218.66.218) > by m8.grp.scd.yahoo.com with QMQP; 5 Nov 2002 21:37:30 -0000 > Received: from unknown (HELO smtp-hub2.mrf.mail.rcn.net) (207.172.4.76) > by mta3.grp.scd.yahoo.com with SMTP; 5 Nov 2002 21:37:30 -0000 > Received: from smtp03.mrf.mail.rcn.net ([207.172.4.62]) > by smtp-hub2.mrf.mail.rcn.net with esmtp (Exim 3.35 #4) > id 189BO5-00001t-00 > for jamboost@yahoogroups.com; Tue, 05 Nov 2002 16:37:29 -0500 > Received: from 146-115-123-43.c3-0.smr-ubr2.sbo-smr.ma.cable.rcn.com > ([146.115.123.43] helo=NEFARIOUS.boost-consulting.com) by > smtp03.mrf.mail.rcn.net with esmtp (Exim 3.35 #4) > id 189BO5-0000D1-00 > for jamboost@yahoogroups.com; Tue, 05 Nov 2002 16:37:29 -0500 > To: jamboost@yahoogroups.com > References: > > > In-Reply-To: > Message-ID: > Lines: 43 > User-Agent: Gnus/5.09 (Gnus v5.9.0) Emacs/21.2 > From: David Abrahams > MIME-Version: 1.0 > Mailing-List: list jamboost@yahoogroups.com; contact > jamboost-owner@yahoogroups.com Delivered-To: mailing list > jamboost@yahoogroups.com > Precedence: bulk > List-Unsubscribe: > Date: 05 Nov 2002 16:23:39 -0500 > Subject: Re: [jamboost] Re: Sane regression testing > Reply-To: jamboost@yahoogroups.com > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII > Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -- David Abrahams dave@boost-consulting.com * http://www.boost-consulting.com
