Our organization uses Netscape 4.x for email. The problem is the vCard
attachments
to messages that are posted to <listname>-request@...... Below is a
paste of
the
message that I get when sending these requests. And yes, if I turn off
vCards,
it does not give me the error messages. Just wondering if there is a
workaround
to
this.

MailCommandHandler should be MIME aware, and refuse to parse any part that
isn't text/* type. Since vCards are text/x-vcard type, MailCommandHandler
should additionally have a list of text/* subtypes that are ignored.

MM2.1's mail command processor is MIME aware now. We can
now close the oldest bug in the database. Yee haw! :)
