1. Outlook has resources to scan entire message, because it already has entire message and it runs on user's machine with small number of users and processes. PHP scripts can't do that. Scripts must get message from server, store it somewhere and parse it. PHP scripts run on server. If they waste time on something, waste of resources is multiplied by number of webmail users. 2. Microsoft is not standards organization. Nor it is famous for following the standards. 3. Your IMAP server does not waste time scanning entire message, because message is plain text according to message headers. SquirrelMail scripts get information about message structure from IMAP server. > So if I'm understanding you correctly, the problem is due to the missing > MIME-Version header.
