James> This is not an exmh problem, but an interaction between sendmail,
|

James> Solaris and mh.
|
|
|
|
Correct.
|
|
|
|
James> Your sysadmin is wrong. It is the responsibility of the receiving mail
|
|
James> server to escape lines beginning with "From " if they choose to turn
|
|
James> on that facility. It is not the responsibility for email clients to
|
|
James> cater to the stupid design of the unix mail spool, and Sun's even more
|
|
James> stupid decision to rely on "Content-length:" instead of dealing with
|
|
James> this problem. Since mh is unaware of "Content-length:", rcvstore gags
|
|
James> trying to parse messages from the spool.
|
|
|
|
Also correct. In fairness, though I cannot defend the Content-Length: header
|
|
as I consider it brain damage in the extreme, Sun inherited this from AT&T.
|
|
|
|
James> Get your mail administrator to add the "E" flag to your sendmail.
|
|
James> This means you will never see a line beginning with "From ". Any such
|
|
James> line will look like ">From ".
|
|
|
|
Specifically, you will need to find a line in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf that
|
|
starts with "Mlocal" such as:
|
|
|
|
[4784] grep ^Mlocal /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
|
|
Mlocal, P=/usr/lib/mail.local, F=lsDFMAw5:/|@qPSXfmnz9E, S=EnvFromSMTP/HdrFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL,
|
|
[4785]
|
|
|
|
and make sure that 'E' appears in the long list of flags following "F=".
|
|
If your sys-admin uses m4 to generate sendmail.cf, and any good sys-admin
|
|
should, then here is the magic line for the .mc file:
|
|
|
|
MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`LOCAL', `+E')dnl
|
|
|
|
James> You can learn to use procmail, invoking rcvstore directly instead of
|
|
James> letting sendmail put your incoming mail into the spool. This avoids
|
|
James> the whole issue. rcvstore only deals with a single message at a time,
|
|
James> and everything works.
|
|
|
|
Also correct, though procmail per se is not needed, as other filters (such
|
|
as slocal, which is part of the [n]mh distribution) do the trick just as well.
