Hello. I am very sorry but there are no technical resources available to address this issue, which, as you are aware from past discussions with us, is a result of email standards not being followed by another provider. Also, the only person with this issue is you, and as you say, you have two other email addresses you use which do not have this issue. Right now technical time at Chebucto is rarer than red diamonds and getting us to break our email system so it does not abide by email standards is just not on. The mail software runs to the standards it is supposed to use, it's not us who is in the wrong here just because the other provider is large. If we had a bunch of eager young technical interns begging for work I would have one report on what possible workarounds are available, but we do not - they would all want to be paid money and we have none. Your solutions therefore are to make noise to Hotmail - they should not be using NUL characters according to the RFCs in the first place, and tell your problematic email correspondents to use one of your other addresses.

Because I want to send that to Chebucto Community Net (CCN) to remain them to fix this problem. There should not be such a problem since yours is not a junk-mail type message. But I need the whole returned email from you to forward to CCN for this purpose, you may need to forward that to me via your gmail address though. That would also show to CCN that gmail has no problem to reach CCN, nut the hotmail has the problem... >> >> >> >> All the best >> Y. Tong >> >> tel.
