Package: minimalist
Version: 2.5.3-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
minimalist fails to remove the 'From ' line on incoming messages, then
adds headers on top of that line. The result is that some MTAs, upon
seeing the 'From ' line, decide that this is where the message body
starts, and thereby ignore the rest of the headers entirely. Thus has
serious implications, since the clients will therefor not see the From:,
To: and Cc: headers, and will display incorrect information, reply to
incorrect senders and so on.
