Sent: 05 September, 2010 18:10 To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: OT: Yahoo web mailSince January 2009 I have accumulated over 1000 messages to groups, that arrived with improper 0A (UNIX line ends without a preceding 0D) in the body of the message. In order to reply to such a message I have to remove them manually to avoid rejection by my SMTP server. It's a PITA.
I have tracked the problem down to Yahoo's web based email client. A bug has been filed with Yahoo on its internal Bugzilla system. Details of the indictment are at <http://macnauchtan.com/editorials/QuotedPrintable.html>.
I doubt that Yahoo is using apache but the issue does involve treatment of HTML forms as they are passed to a CGI interface. Does apache ever do anything to clean up line ends in forms delivered by a POST request as in a web mail site?
Please, off list replies to address in the link unless useful to other listers. ----> There are 10 kinds of people: those who understand binary, and those who don't <--
