This is not an exmh problem, but an interaction between sendmail, Solaris and
|
|
mh.
|
|
|
|
Your sysadmin is wrong. It is the responsibility of the receiving mail
|
|
server to escape lines beginning with "From " if they choose to turn on that
|
|
facility. It is not the responsibility for email clients to cater to the
|
|
stupid design of the unix mail spool, and Sun's even more stupid decision to
|
|
rely on "Content-length:" instead of dealing with this problem. Since mh is
|
|
unaware of "Content-length:", rcvstore gags trying to parse messages from the
|
|
spool.
|
|
|
|
I had this same problem. There are several ways to fix it:
|
|
|
|
1) Get your mail administrator to add the "E" flag to your sendmail. This
|
|
means you will never see a line beginning with "From ". Any such line will
|
|
look like ">From ".
|
|
|
|
2) There is a patch to mh to make it respect "Content-length:". When I was
|
|
having this problem, porting this patch to nmh was low on the priority list,
|
|
then nmh development stalled for a long time. I doubt it has been done, but
|
|
you can check with the nmh list at nmh-workers@mhost.com to find out for sure.
|
|
|
|
3) You can learn to use procmail, invoking rcvstore directly instead of
|
|
letting sendmail put your incoming mail into the spool. This avoids the
|
|
whole issue. rcvstore only deals with a single message at a time, and
|
|
everything works.
