Yes, me too. In my case, it was my email program and not the Cabrillo file 
itself that was the problem. In my case the fix was: 
 
Do NOT send an HTML format message to the ARRL score submission email. 
Send "Plain Text" only.
 
(Also do not try to reason, like I did for a while, that because the body of

the message is empty and there IS no text that can be formatted plainly or 
in html, that is should not matter--it DOES matter.)
