Yes it looks that way from the headers but it's the archived message
that is corrupt. The message I send, which is the one which the
receiving MTA would convert, is the one that verifies correctly.
That's what I'm so puzzled about. The archived message is
corrupt and the mail which I actually send verifies correctly. That
tells me the archiving procedure is screwing up the messages.
