Internal Server Error

Hi all
If I or other isers comment an entry an error will occure: Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

But I receive the comment and I can moderate it. So the machanism works, but with the confusing error message.

I checked my error log file, ie. "[Thu Apr 12 16:32:21 2007] [error] [client xx.xxx.xxx.xx] malformed header from script. Bad header=/home/virtualreview/dead.lette: php-script, referer: http://www.virtualreview.ch/serendipity/index.php?/
archives/1479-Fehlermeldung.html".

I don't know what the dead.letter is and where it comes from (existing since Apr 2nd, 2007). What I know is that this file contains the comments to be approved.

Have a look to http://www.virtualreview.ch/serendipity ... l#comments

Any idea to get the error message off?

We were having the same problem but found a possible solution. When we set up the user account we neglected to enter an e-mail address. Once we gave the account an e-mail address the problem went away.

Great! I really had in the e-mail address (at) instead of the real character @. I changed, and seems to be the solution. I could repeat it - with and without error. Thank you!
