I got this wrong. It is exactly the reverse. First the special >stuff that ezmlm adds, then the Received lines. I'm theorizing that it >is the split in received lines that is confusing Microsoft Exchange. And, wrongness abounds. I made a simple change to 'ezmlm-send' to reorganize the headers and that does not fix the problem. Exchange seems to be arbitrarily dropping certain headers. The odd thing is that when I telnet to port 25 and inject email, the headers come through unscathed. I'm surprised that we haven't had more complaints about this. cgf
