Hi,

I had a look at your
http://www.numenet.com/sympa-err/spool/tmp/13885.stderr file and it
seems to be the output of your archived.pl process, not sympa.pl. Did
you notice if your archived.pl process died ? 
    

No, I'm pretty sure archived.pl was still running.  Also, that message would/should not have been archived, since it was spam, and was not sent
from any list member.
  

Ok, I misinterpreted the "Unrecognized variable: "tag"" warning in your log file.

The error originates from the MailTools perl modules that is probably unable to parse the From SMTP header field because it includes 8bit
characters but it is not properly encoded. We were not able to reproduce on our server ; 
    

Thank you for trying!

I imagine I could definitively recreate the problem by putting the message back in the spool/msg dir and seeing what happened.  I was
pretty well satisfied that it was causing the problem.  Is that how you tested it?
  

Yes that's what we did : copied the file in our msg/ spool after we changed the filename and X-Sympa-To header field.
We had a try with 2 different versions of MailTools installed. None of them caused the process to die.

which means that the version of MailTools you're using is probably too old. Please send us the output of the "make" command (in the sympa-xx
sources directory) ; it will include the versions for all third party perl modules.
    

[liamk@pythagoras sympa-5.3b.4]$ make
[...]
Mail::Internet       MailTools      OK (1.74   >= 1.51)
[...]

I just had  try with MailTools 1.74 but the problme did not occur.

Please also remind us what version of Sympa you're using.
