Paul,

Thanks, best info yet. To clarify a bit, the  Language= Exchange,
Attachments= All in the body of the message (Listserv 1.8e supports All, but
it doesn't seem to have any effect anyway, supposed to fix Outlook messages)
I just put there for my own benefit so I knew what the list settings were
for that particular message.  Here is a copy of my list header:

Subscription= Closed
Ack= Yes
Attachments= Yes
Language= Exchange
Confidential= Yes
Validate= Yes,Confirm
Reply-to= List,Respect
Review= Owner
Send= Private
Errors-To= Owner
Notebook= Yes,f:\www\archives,Weekly,Private
.HH ON
Filter= Also,*.*@western.edu
Owner= [log in to unmask]
.HH OFF

Is it possible the problem lies with LSMTP rather than Listserv?

Thanks!!

Chad

Binary attachments such as images, documents, and executables must be
encoded by the sender's email client before the message is sent, to ensure
that the attachments do not become corrupted during transit. The encoding is
done by the sender's email client, not by LISTSERV. LISTSERV does not encode
or decode any attachments.

The material you included below the paragraph describing the problem appears
to have been extracted from the raw source of a multi-part MIME message. The
material contains two MIME boundaries and all or part of the content of each
MIME part.

The first MIME part contains a single line of unencoded 7-bit ASCII text.

        Language= Exchange, Attachments=All

The second MIME part appears to be the first few lines from an image file
which was encoded using the BASE64 encoding scheme.

It appears that you (or the sender of the message) sent a message to the
list address with the 'Language=' and 'Attachments=' keywords in the body of
the message, and an image attached to the message. These keyword statements
must appear on separate lines in the list header, not in the body of a
message sent to the list. Furthermode, the 'Attachments=' keyword does not
support the operand 'All'. The valid forms of the 'Attachments=' keyword
are:

        Attachments= Yes
        Attachments= No
        Attachments= No,filter
        Attachments= [list of acceptable MIME types]

See <http://www.lsoft.com/manuals/1.8d/owner/appendb.html#keyAttachments>
for additional information about the 'Attachments=' keyword.
