This is presumably intended to look like this (and since I've gone to the trouble of reformatting it, I can now read it and will reply). >>> up until recently the setup of our corporate network used a >>> FreeBSD firewall running smapd.

I've deleted the headers you attached, but one possibility is that it's bouncing because you don't have a reverse mapping for your mail server. If that's not it, reformat the message and send it again, and I'll take a look. >>> does anyone have any ideas about what may resolve my problem? >>> >>> I will attach a mail stuck in the sendmail spooler for your >>> reference..... I see you're using a Microsoft mailer. I've bounced your message to a Microsoft box and looked at it there; it looks just as bad. > I am quite insulted by your attitude! I'm sorry, that wasn't my intention. I thought that you didn't know how bad your messages look. I am quite insulted by mutilated mail messages, though.
