Hello- When an undeliverable BSMTP message arrives through our BITNET gateway, the bounce message consistently loses the first line or two of the original headers. I've included an example below. We just installed PMDF 4.1-13, JNET 3.6 and VMS 5.5-1. I'm using the old PMDF 4.0 configuration: I recompiled and installed the old PMDF.CNF with no modifications, and other than these bounce header trims, things seem to be working okay. By the way, this trimming only appears on the bit_gateway channel, as far as I can tell. Bounces on the local channel and regular NJE channel don't show this anomaly. Anyone recognize what I've missed? Thanks. -John John Payne Academic Systems Coordinator payne@ithaca.bitnet Academic Computing Services payne@ithaca.edu Ithaca College, Ithaca, NY 14850 -----Here's an example of a bounced BSMTP message I created----- From: IN%"postmaster@ITHACA.BITNET" "PMDF Mail Server" 25-JAN-1993 11:26:01.4 3 To: IN%"postmaster@ITHACA.BITNET", IN%"PAYNE@ITHACA.BITNET" CC: Subj: Undeliverable mail: SMTP delivery failure Return-path: <postmaster@ITHACA.BITNET> Received: from CORNELLC (MAL@CORNELLC) by ITHACA.BITNET (PMDF #2677 ) id <01GTXMYFPOWW8WX6RA@ITHACA.BITNET>; Mon, 25 Jan 1993 11:25:38 EST Date: 25 Jan 1993 11:25:38 -0500 (EST) From: PMDF Mail Server <postmaster@ITHACA.BITNET> Subject: Undeliverable mail: SMTP delivery failure To: postmaster@ITHACA.BITNET, PAYNE@ITHACA.BITNET Message-id: <01GTXMYL90UK8WX6RA@ITHACA.BITNET> X-Envelope-to: PAYNE, postmaster Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Your message could not be delivered to: Addressee: bogusid@ithaca.bitnet Reason: unknown or illegal user: bogusid@ITHACA.BITNET ---------------------------------------- Jan 93 11:25:46 EST Received: from ITHACA.BITNET (PAYNE) by CORNELLC (Mailer R2.08A) with BSMTP id 1903; Mon, 25 Jan 93 11:25:09 EST Received: from ITHACA.BITNET by ITHACA.BITNET (PMDF #2677 ) id <01GTXMUPQW5C8Y58A2@ITHACA.BITNET>; Mon, 25 Jan 1993 11:23:14 EST Date: 25 Jan 1993 11:23:14 -0500 (EST) From: John Payne <PAYNE@ITHACA.BITNET> Subject: Testing SMTP bounces To: bogusid%ithaca.bitnet@cornellc.cit.cornell.edu Message-id: <01GTXMUPQW5E8Y58A2@ITHACA.BITNET> X-Envelope-to: bogusid%ithaca.bitnet@cornellc.cit.cornell.edu X-VMS-To: IN%"@cornellc.cit.cornell.edu:bogusid@ithaca.bitnet" MIME-version: 1.0 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT This is an undeliverable message.
