MESSAGE-ID is not being added on outgoing mails

HI,

I am having the following problems on my servers. The MESSAGE-ID in the mails are not being added when the mail gets send. My clients are getting back there emails with the following message:

Code:

550 5.7.1 message unacceptable

We have asked the provider that is refusing the emails why the 550 error and the gave us the following description:

Code:

Mar, 30 ago 2005 18:13:38 +0200	No Message-ID header from 
user@domain.biz at host.domain.net (xx.xx.xx.xxx)

It seems that exim is not adding the MESSAGE-ID to the emails. Can somebody confirm this.

How can make exim add the MESSAGE-ID to the headers when it is sending the email.

Thank you.

Ronald

 

Hi,

I have clicked every possible box that has headers in it but the MESSAGE-ID gets added by the receiving server and not the sending server.

Is it possible to rebuild the exim.conf with a standard exim.conf?

Thanks

Ronald

 

I noticed that emails generated on the server and mails from outlook express have the MESSAGE-ID but emails send out by outlook don't have the message-id. This seems very strange.

Thanks

Ronald

 

Hello chirpy,

I have tried it on 8 servers. On 7 servers the exim.conf has been modified. The one server that has not been modified at all, has the same problem. I will try your advice in resetting the exim.conf. I will let you know if it works.

It seems that outlook sends the information in a wrong and exim can't create the message-id.

Thanks for your help,

Ronald

 

Ok. I did what you suggested but the message-id gets added by the recieving server and not the the sending server. This is only with outlook. Outlook expres work prefect.

here are the headers:

As you can see the message-id is on the bottom of the headers and it is the receiving server that has added this message-id.

Here is a header send with oulook express:

Hello chirpy

I have opened a bugzilla:

http://bugzilla.cpanel.net/show_bug.cgi?id=3150

I have searched on google and it seems it is outlook that is having problems but exim should add the message-id if it is not there.

Thanks you trying as well. I thought I was the only one.

Ronald

 

Ok. I have added that line to one of the servers. I will see how how it goes. I have found this link about outlook:

I sure means that microsoft outlook is not confirm as being a MUA.

Thanks alot for your help.
