Greetings, I have three lists on two different domains, maintained by the same host. All three lists were set up as newsletter lists, and I followed the FAQ at http://www.hartzler.net/smartlist/SmartList-FAQ.html#Section_2.10 I have Uncommented the line "RC_LOCAL_SUBMIT_20 = rc.local.s20" from your rc.custom file I have created a rc.local.s20 file with the following in it: # # Adding a disclaimer in front of every mail: # :0 fhw | cat - header.txt # # Appending a footer to every outgoing mail: # :0 fbw | cat - footer.txt And I have created a header.txt and a footer.txt file. Here's the problem. All lists were working fine. Header and footer would show up without any problem. Recently, however, my posts to these lists have NOT had headers or footers. In all cases, there were no changes to the list between when they were wporking and when the header/footer stopped showing up. Provider says "Try uninstalling and reinstalling lists". I guess it's not that bog a deal, but why would this happen. Not only are both domains on same host, they are both residing on same machine. Any ideas? Thanks

But there was a change to your mail client, I'd wager. Are you sending the mail to your lists in the same multipart/alternative MIME type you sent this letter (see header field extract below)? If so, I suggest you change Outlook to send plain text ONLY, and I'm betting your problem goes away. (Please don't ask me how...I don't use Microsoft Internet applications.) That is, I'm betting the problem isn't in SmartList, but in your email format. SmartList is likely adding the information, but since it's outside the MIME boundaries, you just can't see it (and neither can most of your readers). Charlie
