Re: mails, which were sent through sqwebmai, loops back

Not on topic exactly (or at all for that matter), but I just have to 
mention this.

Every time you send a non-plain text message to this list... The 
following "checked by RAV" message is all I see, until I tell my mail 
client to look at the "worse" alternatives.

I looked back, and it's been added well enough to "text/plain" messages 
that you've sent. But any multipart messages are being messed up by 
this addition.

I've never heard of a "text/ignore" MIME type, so I don't believe it's 
a valid type -- which means when your scanning software is adding it, 
instead it should probably be marked "text/x-ignore" (experimental), or 
even better yet as "text/vnd.rav-ignore" (vendor specific) since it is 
not a registered type AFAIK.

Regardless, it should definitely *not* be the last item in the MIME 
structure, since it is intended to be ignored. It should be *first* so 
that all parsers will see it as the "worst alternative" and display one 
of the others by default.

If, however, RAV cannot insert its message at the head of the MIME 
structure, I would suggest that you configure it to *not* make an 
addition to any multipart messages at all, since trailing additions are 
only going to mess things up in one way or another.

Just my $.02 worth of off-topic suggestions.
