exim reply and ezmlm

[iyan]

Helo,

I have problem when subscribe confirmation from ezmlm mailing list using exim mailserver, the email back to me with error :

Subject : Mail failure - malformed recipient address

Body :

A message that you sent contained one or more recipient addresses that were
incorrectly constructed:

bla bla bla

need help,

 

[rldev]

Hmm isn't ezlm for qmail?

 

[iyan]

helo,

yes, ezmlm for qmail,
I mean, my mailsever using exim, confirm subscribe to other host using qmail+ezmlm,

If the message said "bla bla bla" then the ezmlm is broken.

If the message said something else then you're probably obfuscating the only data that could be useful in figuring out what's wrong.

Helo Jeff,

here is the complete error :

A message that you sent contained one or more recipient addresses that were
incorrectly constructed:

balita-anda-sc.1104935161.leoedcjbepphoadbdklg-iyan=\n
[email protected]: missing or malformed local part (expected word or "<")

This address has been ignored. There were no other addresses in your
message, and so no attempt at delivery was possible.

Forget about the return after the "To:" that just looks that way because of the length of the line.

However that return after the "iyan=" is breaking the to address because email isn't allowed to have a newline character in it.

Are you clicking on "reply" or are you creating a new email?

Have you checked your logs to see if your server is getting the email with a newline character in the To address? It may be a bug in squirrelmail having to do with long addresses. The RFCs say a local part can be up to 64 chars in length, and yours is 60, so it should work.
