Bouncing e-mails
Discussion
Amazing; I solved this one before I posted the problem, so thought I'd share the glee...
I'd been trying to send an e-mail, no attachments, but it kept bouncing back with '550 Error: Message content rejected'.
Eventually I searched on Google and the first link was to a chap at Edinburgh University who's posted a question about this problem too. Apparently Freeserve is bouncing all e-mails with 'Hi' in the subject line as it's a characteristic of MyDoom.
I changed the subject line and - bingo - it went straight through. Hurrah!
So a gold star to Google for being so damn clever, and a pile of poo to Freeserve for not fitting antivirus software to their servers!!!
