When I send an e-mail to a user, most of the times Yahoo user, and Yahoo returns a bounce to my Gmail account, that bounces comes most of the time truncated.
What's my problem here? Is in Gmail that truncates the messages, if yes, how do I fix it, or it is because of Yahoo?
thanks!
It shows like this in the bounce:
–
-- Original message follows.
The original message is over 5K. Message truncated.\
Is Yahoo who does this?

The reason that the message is truncated is because the server (in this case Yahoo's) doesn't see the point in sending back the whole message in a bounce message. The theory is that you have the whole message already if you sent it! It just gives you enough back so you can work out which message has bounced.
If the address had existed then the message would not have been truncated and would be received in full by the recipient.
