problem repeat
Gentlemen- I asked about this once before but I guess nobody is having this problem as I have hot heard any comments. I'll check once more to be sure.
I run james on an internal server and have a front-end smtp server forward messages to it (an IIS server, feeds our organization). As admin on the IIS server, i occasionally get error notifications such as this:
Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.
Subject: some subject
Sent: 8/18/2002 2:25 PM
The following recipient(s) could not be reached:
someone@mydomain.com <ma...@mydomain.com> on 8/18/2002 2:26 PM
The message contains a content type that is not supported
<mail.frontserver.com #5.6.1 smtp;554 5.6.1 Body type not supported by Remote Host>
Most of these messages are usually spam with some form of html body, but sometimes legit emails get this error too. Apparently the IIS smtp server accepts the message fine, but when it forwards to james it chokes on the message or content type somehow. Im not sur how to proceed with repairing this, any ideas guys?
Thanks
Brady

its unlikely to be james that sends this message, to the best of my knowledge james wouldn't choke on any correctly formed (per RFC822) message, no matter what the body type is. I haven't tried it with "special" types though eg message/digest or the types for bounces, which I forget.
