Are you configured to a local relay or do you go directly to your corporate email infrastructure? </p> <p>Can you configure a local relay, set up a test workflow to send a message, trap it in a aliased local drop folder, and then take a look at that header? I find it unlikely that the mail we are generating has truncated headers like that. </p> GeorgeWNYC on "Workflow Email to more than one approver lacks headers ?" http://www.endusersharepoint.com/STP/topic/workflow-email-to-more-than-one-approver-lacks-headers#post-539 Tue, 05 Aug 2008 17:13:00 +0000 GeorgeWNYC 539@http://www.endusersharepoint.com/STP/ <p>OK This is an issue with Workflows with more than one person as an approver.</p> <p>The outgoing email message is missing headers, so it comes through 'un-formatted'.</p> <p>Have you every seen this?</p> <p>----- Original Message -----<br /> From: <[email protected]><br /> To: <[email protected]><br /> Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2008 4:53 PM</p> <p>>:<br /> > Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit<br /> > Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8<br /> > Subject: Approval started on _directory_.<br /> > MIME-Version: 1.0<br /> > X-Mailer: Windows SharePoint Services (version 3)<br /> ><br /> > <style><br /> > TABLE.mail { border-style:none; border-collapse:collapse; font:8pt Tahoma; width:100%; }TD.header { background:#F8F8F9; border:1px solid #E8EAEC; padding:12pt 10px 4pt 10px; }TD.body { padding:12pt 10px 24pt 10px; }TD.footer { border-width:1px; border-style:solid none none none; border-color:#9CA3AD; padding:4pt 10px 4pt 10px; }A { text-decoration:none; }DIV.title { font:16pt Verdana; }DIV.headertext { margin:5px 0px 0px 0px; }DIV.error { font-weight:bold; }DIV.comment { color:#9CA3AD; }SPAN.wfname { font:bold italic; }<br /> > </style><table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" class="mail" DIR="none"><br /> > <tr class="header"><br /> > <td class="header"><div class="title"><br /> > <span class='wfname'>Approval</span> has started on <a href='http://amportal.MyCompany.com/IT/Shared Documents/_directory_.aspx'>_directory_</a>.<br /> > </div><div class="headertext"><br /> > Participants are George Winters<br /> > </div></td><br /> > </tr><tr class="body"><br /> > <td class="body" valign="top"><div><br /> > Each person will receive a task to approve <a href='http://amportal.MyCompany.com/IT/Shared Documents/_directory_.aspx'>_directory_</a>.
