Hotmail bug corrupting email headers.

  1. Oct 05 2009 11:10 AM

    Hotmail bug corrupting email headers.

    Replying to a reply of a reply in hotmail is generating corrupted email headers because Hotmail is inserting a X-OriginalArrivalTime header in the middle of the References header block.

     

    I've included below a full packet sniff of the transaction to show that the problem is on the hotmail side.

    Hi cstdenis. We need to properly investigate this issue. Please give us the following info:

     - Does this happen to all your replies?
     - Are you using an e-mail client to view/send your messages?

    Thanks.
