Package: mutt Version: 1.5.13-1.1 Severity: minor Some broken mail processing software (I'm thinking particularly of crm114 here, though other things could do the same) when processing e-mail that contains a Message-ID header so that it also contains a Message-Id header. mutt, presumably in order to improve interoperability, will accept either spelling of the header name and appears to accept the last one.
Unfortunately in the case of crm114 what it's doing is trying to add a comment to the Message-ID; what it actually ends up doing is creating a Message-Id field consisting only of a comment. This means that mutt winds up thinking there is no Message-ID at all, breaking threading. It would help matters if mutt were to ignore empty Message-I[dD] headers without assuming they were the only instance of that heaeder. Obviously, the problematic messages broken and the software generating them needs to be fixed: this is just a suggestion for an interoperability enhancement. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-powerpc Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages mutt depends on: ii exim4 4.63-17 metapackage to ease exim MTA (v4) ii exim4-daemon-light [mail- 4.63-17 lightweight exim MTA (v4) daemon ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdb4.4 4.4.20-8 Berkeley v4.4 Database Libraries [ ii libgnutls13 1.4.4-3 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libidn11 0.6.5-1 GNU libidn library, implementation ii libncursesw5 5.5-5 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsasl2-2 2.1.22.dfsg1-8 Authentication abstraction library Versions of packages mutt recommends: ii locales 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: National Language ( ii mime-support 3.39-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
