Hi, I'm using a postfix for local e-mail with Unix user(s) only and 'mailbox_command = maildrop'. As of 2.7 maildrop is not stripping the 'From ' line as it used to https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=737383 and other mail tools are complaining about it.
Of course, I could plug in 'reformail -f0' as suggested by maildrop upstream, but local(8) is able to also deliver without adding the additional 'From ' line (external file delivery). For the moment I chose to use 'home_mailbox = Maildir/', but I'm planning to use postfix for all my e-mail and I need the sorting capabilities of maildrop. I could also create a 'maildrop' destination and use pipe(8), but this requires maildrop to be suid root, which I'd rather avoid (besides complicating the setup somewhat). Would it make sense to introduce an option to prevent local(8) from adding the additional 'From ' line? Kind regards, Andrei -- If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.
