MailScanner sends Invalid MIME headers?

[Alex Laslavic]

I'll answer my own question.  Removing "." from the %orgname%  fixed it.  I
really should read the comments huh!  Thanks fellas, all is well now.

The %org-name% is "havertys.com", is that bad?

Alex

sounds like the %org-name% in the MailScanner.conf as a '.' or someother
illegal character in their.

Not one of Symantecs products on the remote end is it? They are well
known on this list for being pedantic about this issue in the headers.
