traveling user unable to email
Hi all I have a user that is now in Africa and she is unable to send to any
external user using outlook , and when attempting to use Eudora she gets a
"your message scored 6.7 points"
I have whitelisted her in my local.cf but Eudora stills gives her the
message congratulations blah blah blah
This is what I'm not following
1.9 FORGED_MUA_EUDORA Forged mail pretending to be from Eudora
1.7 INVALID_MSGID Message-Id is not valid, according to RFC
2822
And here are the headers
Message-Id: <6.0.3.0.2.20060724121551.01e678e0@68.167.21.154 >
X-Sender: ekb@68.167.21.154 (Unverified)
X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 6.0.3.0
Date: Mon, 24 Jul 2006 12:16:49 -040
I see why my whitelisting doesn't work as I have whitelisted her email
address
ebrazier@fcimail.org
ebrazier@familycareintl.org
now in case you are wondering ekb is her windows login on the laptop, but
the eudora and outlook are set to ebrazier
So Forged MUA appeaers to be due to the fact that something is registering
her as ekb not ebrazier but what is the invalidity in the MSGID?

It is probably that space at the end of the message id (between the 4 and >). That really should be
there. Is Eudora really putting a space in the message id or is something munging it along the way?

I doubt that the whitelisting has anything to do with the X-Sender.
