Postfix broken Message-ID for virtual servers

Hello,

I am having some problems with gmail.com seeing emails arriving from virtual servers with Message-ID: 58312b17.44491c0a.bcf95.0e14SMTPIN_ADDED_BROKEN@mx.google.com

It seems Postfix or a milter creates 2 @ signs in Message-ID, breaking it. <00c701d2473b$45dd2890$d19779b0$@username@domainname.ro>

From the same server, but from the main domain, Message-ID is shown as: <00f901d2473d$d1a319f0$74e94dd0$@ro>

Any clue as to why only the Message-ID for extra virtual servers might get 2 @ signs?

Thank you

Unborn, you should stop with the distro update replies. This is the second time you reply to one of my topics without contributing with anything useful. In fact, without contributing anything at all.

Found the problem. It seems the MTA is not the issue but the MUA, Outlook 2007 in this case which is generating non RFC Message IDs.

My bad for not thinking about a MUA problem before opening my "mouth".

Howdy,

I did want to follow up to say that Ubuntu 14.04 is a perfectly good distro to be using... it's still supported by both Ubuntu, and by us.
