Re: [Davmail-users] EWS support is getting better!

On Tuesday 31 August 2010, Mickaël Guessant elucidated thus:

Ah, thanks.

But still no joy. My mail client tells me:

Sending failed:
The server did not accept the sender address "jo...@az...".
The server responded: "Bad sequence of commands"
The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder until you either fix the 
problem (e.g. a broken address) or remove the message from the 'outbox' 
folder.
The following transport protocol was used:
CRC Health

From the log, it seems to be this:

< EHLO localhost
> 250-localhost
> 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN
> 250-8BITMIME
> 250 Hello
< MAIL FROM:<jo...@az...> BODY=8BITMIME
> 503 Bad sequence of commands
< RSET
> 250 OK Reset
< QUIT
> 221 Closing connection

So, when advertising 8bitmime, apparently there is additional syntax you 
need to support for 8BITMIME.  See 
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1652.html

This caught my eye:

one optional parameter using the keyword BODY is added to the MAIL FROM 
command.  The value associated with this parameter is a keyword 
indicating whether a 7bit message (in strict compliance with [1]) or a 
MIME message (in strict compliance with [3]) with arbitrary octet 
content is being sent. The syntax of the value is as follows, using the 
ABNF notation of [2]:

body-value ::= "7BIT" / "8BITMIME"

But it's getting closer!
