My SMTP server sent me the following URL after trying to send a message for an iCal alarm:

http://cr.yp.to/docs/smtplf.html

Any idea how to fix this problem? iCal is sending through Eudora and I don't seem to have had this problem before.

Not sure who is to blame here - best to file a bug on iCal.

iCal will be using AppleScript to send the text of the alarm via a mail message.

The body of email messages should not use a single LF (0A) to represent a carriage return - because that signifies the end of the body. New Lines should be CR LF (0D 0A) - I think....

However the Applescript used in iCal just set's the body of the message as the contents of your alarm - so if you have a new line in your notes of your alarm then it is dumped into the body of the mail.

Strangely I can't find an Eudora script in the iCal Package - so I'm not sure how you could fix it.

Thanks for the info, I'll take a look. Actually, I had to use a 3rd party script for the iCal to Eudora, so I'll check that and if I have any questions ink to that. Thanks again!
