hi wietse,

thx for the reply =)

no, i'm not using Apple's ... rather, i'm building from source, using
<ftp://ftp.porcupine.org/mirrors/postfix-release/experimental/postfix-2.2-20041221+tls-nonprod.tar.gz>
(haven't tried -20041230- yet ...)

my client app is Mulberry ... i'm not sure yet what it's 'feeding' postfix. i
_can_ say that the same message re-sent to my postfix-based server and to
another (CGP) server both, of course, receive the mail, but postfix stores with
DOS-endings, and CGP with UNIX-endings.

my test-cases, so far, have been local -- in that they haven't gone over the
_external_ network. but the messages i've been testing with ARE delivered
locally via LMTP listening on an IP Domain socket ...

given the LMTP delivery, does that qualify as 'over the network', and would
your comment still apply?

cheers,

richard
