[bit.listserv.mailbook] Mail not recognized as mail

CGTAYLO@ERENJ.BITNET (Clement Taylor) (02/09/90)

Dear Colleagues, A user has complained to me that mail he receives from
a node at UCSB is never recognized by our mailer as being mail. A lot
of principals here correspond with other nodes at UCSB with no difficulty.
Is there something I can do to our mailer to help. Note that I am using
Mailer version 2.03B. I have the next release but never had incentive to
install it. If that will solve the problem, I'll go ahead and put it up.

<<Clem -- I received the following file from xxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx at
<<UC Santa Barbara.  Somehow our system did not recognize it as a
<<BITNET message, so it wound up in my reader.  It would be nice if
<<mail from this guy was recognized as BITNET mail.  I have had this
<<problem with all mail from this machine (other users, same node).
<<Another strange thing about mail from this node is that I always get
<<two copies of it (as you can see from the header, it was sent to both
<<STMILNE@ERENJ and stmilne@erenj).  Can this be fixed?  Is it their
<<problem or ours?

<<Thanks in advance, -- Scott

Changing MAILER will not help you.  MAILER never received this file.  It
was directly delivered from ucsbuxa.ucsb.edu (aka UCSBUXA.BITNET).  If
they refuse to honor your reqeuest for mail delivery via your mailer
there is nothing you can do about it.
