Incoming emails dropped: TMail::SyntaxError "mail is began by space"
Added by Chris Platts over 13 years ago
Hi,
I think this might be something internal to ActionMailer rather than Redmine-specific, but I'd be interested to see if anyone here has seen (or fixed/worked-around) this problem.
Frequently, an incoming email will trigger this error:
A TMail::SyntaxError occurred in mail_handler#index: mail is began by space /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionmailer-2.3.11/lib/action_mailer/vendor/tmail-1.2.7/tmail/mail.rb:395:in `parse_header' ------------------------------- Request: ------------------------------- * URL : http://172.16.68.33:88/mail_handler * IP address: 172.16.68.33 * Parameters: {"unknown_user"=>"create", "no_permission_check"=>"1", "action"=>"index", "allow_override"=>"", "issue"=>{"project"=>"support", "tracker"=>"Support"}, "controller"=>"mail_handler", "key"=>"OzbAo9T4lB6ehMiJy2Vm", "email"=>" title=3D\""} * Rails root: /var/redmine-latest
The emails are being sent to us from our clients -- most often using MS Outlook. Perhaps ActionMailer is being rather too strict in parsing the incoming email?
Is there a way to get ActionMailer to relax a bit and let these emails through?
