See that blank line up there, 'tween the Xref and Message-ID headers?
It's an error.

I've reported it to the "Hogwasher" developers, let's see what, if
anything, happens.

Interesting, even though I have no idea of its significance or practical
effect. Curiously, Hogwasher's headers for that message contain no blank
line, nor is it present on the newsreader function in Entourage.

Does it mess up your ability to view the text and/or picture?

In my experience, Asar are exceedingly prompt at responding. I once reported
a very rare problem with Hogwasher and they diagnosed it and replied to me
within 24 hours. Mind you, my experience is limited as normally Hogwasher
just works.

Well, the RFCs say that a message header is terminated by a line that is
empty _or_ consists of only whitespace (i.e. logically empty), so
software written to that stops thinking and just tries to display what
follows, but as the "Content-Type" header appears in the body of the
message it is not parsed so the message is not displayed correctly.

Yes, the messages are malformed, Thunderbird just sees as a
"message/partial" attachment.

It looks like it only appears in the *first* part of a multi-part
posting, single-part postings do *not* show the problem.

Hmm, I'll rephrase that to "two part posts", I wonder what happens with
three?

Hopefully they will respond to a message from a non-user. (No response
as yet.)

I'll post a picture in a moment which has a reduced part size, my intention
being to force it into three parts. Then we'll know for sure.

Amusing - the *first* post has the blank line in the header, the second
and third posts do *not* have the blank line in the headers.

So, by extrapolation, only the _first_ post in a multi-part post is
malformed.

These are excellent pictures.

I'm wondering why you post many of them in multiple parts, though. The file
sizes look as though they would be OK without the need to break them up.

Cheers,
