Already fixed in the last CVS update. I'll make a release of that next
week.

These are rfc822 specs (page 17)...
message = fields *( CRLF *text ) ; Everything after
; first null line
; is message body
fields = dates ; Creation time,
source ; author id & one
1*destination ; address required
*optional-field ; others optional
For what I can understand the rule is ONE Sender, ONE or more recipient
and ONE Date.
Agree that being more coherent with other mail server may be smarter
than being closer to specs...
+1 for me. Does anybody has better suggestion?
