Sir,
 Iam Ebenezer.Received U're(Mr.Robin) reply regarding my complaint of mail
bounce back in U're pine program.I had forgotten to mention along with the
display of" MAILER-DAEMON".When I wanted to view the message after I came
to know that the mails had bounced back (i.e., when I had given the
command "mailx" to check any incoming mail) the monitor displayed the
following,
 " Message contains data in an unrecognised format which can either be
viewed as text or written to a file". Surprisingly, this message was
followed by a query-"Whether I want to do any of the following
1)View the message as text?
2)Want to write it to a file?
3)Just skip it?                  "
 
			I was able to do all 1,2&3.Please enlighten me on
this & tell me what to do?
                   As U had adviced me I had checked the addresses , they
are correct.Apart from that other's mail haven't bounced back indicating
that the local server is proper.
                    Reply soon.
              My E-mail address is(Please address as" message to
Ebenezer")

> 2)Want to write it to a file?

First, it sounds as if your "mailx" program has been integrated with
metamail and that it has certain attachment types for which a mailcap
entry does not exist.

> that the local server is proper.

It would be most helpful if we knew the full text of the message issued
by the Mailer Daemon.  As Robin mentioned, it is probably either a local
configuration problem or a problem with the email address.  You could
send me (or ask Robin) to check the email address for you.
