[Heathkit] Plain text TEST

[Glen Zook]

Now that you have found the "problem", I can now decode the messages.  What I get is over 100-lines of "gibberish" and then, finally, the actual text of the message.

It's not that it is being "rejected". I have examined all the messages that come through as blank and the message text is actually there but is encoded as multi-part MIME. To make matters worse, one part is nested within another. This makes it look like an unrecognized or undecodable attachment to some mail clients and the body of the message appears blank.

For example, Sandy's original test message appears blank to me. But when I look at the raw message I see this:

>Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="===============4945518188467905364=="
>Sender: heathkit-bounces at mailman.qth.net
>Errors-To: heathkit-bounces at mailman.qth.net

>--===============4945518188467905364==
>Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="001a1147003afe740c0557c002cb"

>--001a1147003afe740c0557c002cb
>Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"

>Hello folks! My posts have not made it. Repliers tell me that there's no

I'm hoping that came through for everyone, I tied to disguise it by using a quoted text format....

Not an ISP issue, it appears to be a MIME issue.
