Hi Lars and Gordon,

the direction of both hints was right: I did configure the old version to be not so srict and I did take this option to the new installation - but the problem sat between keyboard and chair :-)

Thanks for the help, have a nice weekend.

Hi list, Hi ugrading from Courier 0.53.3 to 0.57.0 I recognized that the behavior changed when receiving mails with German umlaute in the subject line. The old version didn't complain, but now I get error when receiving this type of mail (courier mail complaining about formatting errors, pointing to rfc2047, original mail in attachment). Is courier more looking for standards now? Can this behavior be configured to be more tolerable?

Courier never really likes badly formed email headers, but there was a change a some point to make it put these emails in attachements. I personally think that is perfectly tolerable, but if you want, you can make Courier more tolerant... Set opt BOFHBADMIME=accept in the bofn config file to go back to the old behavior. /Lars http://www.nosotros.dk
