    If you can forward me an email like this that I can test with, that would help. --- SBBSecho 3.20-Linux

    If you have an example email that you'd be okay with forwarding to me at my BBS, that would probably help, since these types of header lines aren't coming through if I try to email myself from my Gmail our Hotmail accounts.I'm pretty sure I've seen these types of lines in emails before, and I could have DDMsgReader strip them out by looking for lines that start with "Content-Type:", "Content-Transfer-Encoding:" and other header field labels and strip them out, but I also wouldn't want to strip out any message content that the sender had typed (it's possible that the sender might type something like that - perhaps they're providing an example of email headers or something).

    Your message reader shouldn't need to strip anything. This looks to be a MIME-encoded multi-part message and smblib should parse out the "plain-text" part automatically for you.A question for Nelgin: how does this same message display when using the built-in message reader or `msglist.js`?

    When using msglist.js it's the same.![image](/uploads/4f90552199485ee76fcec04ec17d6c0f/image.png)

    DDMsgReader is simply calling Msgbase.get_msg_body() to get the message body. I would imagine those header lines must be in the message body returned by Synchronet.

    So this isn't a DDMsgReader issue. An smbutil dump of the message headers and body text would be helpful to try to root-cause/resolve.

    Yes, this looks like a synch issue then. I'll provide you dumps later today. Thanks.
