"This error occurs when the email program or device used to create or send an email message adds bare line feed characters into the message. When bare line feed characters are included in a message, the SMTP protocol chunking feature is required to transmit the message between email servers. Chunking uses the SMTP protocol BDAT command, but the recipient’s email server doesn’t support the BDAT command.
To fix the issue, the sender should send the message using an email program or device that doesn’t add bare line feed characters to messages. Most modern email programs don’t add bare line feed characters."
Anyone have an idea how I can configure UrBackup as per below?

Yeah, apparently the format that uses “bare line feed characters” (whatever that is!) is older tech and at least one big player’s mailserver (Rackspace.com) is complaining about it. The NDR screenshot I included at the top was what 365 said Rackspace (the recipient mailserver) said.
This may or may not help, but if you go to the logs tab, right at the bottom there’s a tiny link “edit report script”, you could try clicking there, going through the script and replacing every instance of \n with \r\n might help, if the emails don’t get any other line feeds added elsewhere \n is the “Linux\Unix” way of doing things, a simple line feed (LF), windows, and thus Office 365, expects a carriage return (CR) first, adding the \r supplies it.
Some details explaining here in the “What’s a bare line feed in email messages?” section .
If that does solve it, let us know as it may benefit others, and the devs might even make the change, after all the (CR) won’t break Unix systems, it’s Windows that’s fragile…
Is it prudent to revive an old post? I am stumbling over this - the reason MS365 is so picky about this is for their implementation of spam filtering with DANE, which I don’t want to relax. MS is like a Landrover, for better or worse, you don’t use it, you marry it. I thus would like to solve this from the URBackup side. I tried changing the report script (it seemed like a really good idea), but that has not solved the issue.
Does anyone else have a solution for this?
