Package: procmail
Version: 3.22-10
Severity: important
When splitting email with the -s option, a mail will only be considered
a new mail if there is a "From:" header immediately after a "From "
header, e.g.
--- cut ---
>From nobody Mon Feb 9 20:21:05 2004
User-Agent: Microsoft-Outlook-Express-Macintosh-Edition/5.02.2022
From: "Brian May" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
>From nobody Mon Feb 9 20:21:05 2004
User-Agent: Microsoft-Outlook-Express-Macintosh-Edition/5.02.2022
From: "Brian May" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
--- cut ---
Is considered as one email, but:
--- cut ---
>From nobody Mon Feb 9 20:21:05 2004
From: "Brian May" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
User-Agent: Microsoft-Outlook-Express-Macintosh-Edition/5.02.2022
>From nobody Mon Feb 9 20:21:05 2004
From: "Brian May" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
User-Agent: Microsoft-Outlook-Express-Macintosh-Edition/5.02.2022
--- cut ---
This only happens if certain headers appear between the "From " and
"From:" headers, "User-Agent" is a good example. NNTP-Posting-Date is
also another one. Other headers like "Subject:" are OK.
Note 1: this happens on mbox files written by gnus.
Note 2: the emails in question have a "Lines: " header but not a
"Content-Length: " Header. I suspect formail only supports the latter.
Note 3: I have marked this as important, as I find this behaviour really
confusing and potentially damaging.
Note 4: To the best of my knowledge mbox mails should be split on the
"From " header, and what headers follow is completely irrelevant and
should not even be considered.
Note 5: In order to test this out, I used the following script:
--- cut ---
#!/bin/sh -e
echo "-----"
grep '^From'
--- cut ---
saved it as "doit", and passed "doit" as the parameter to "-s". When it
is working, every email should be split up by a line with "-----".
Note 6: An ugly work around is:
grep -v '^\(User-Agent\|NNTP-Posting-Date\):' < mailfile | formail -s ../doit
