Hi Ace, I am using debian and I ran across the same problem previously. What happened was that in qmail-pop3d.c, there were duplicate code (in the pop3_top function) after patching that printed the "+OK *** octets" lines twice. I removed the duplicate lines and recompiled qmail-pop3d. It works fine after that.
Hope this helps, mengkuan Ace Suares wrote: > > Hi, > > A long time ago (in April) I posted a question about an very annoying extra > line in the mail headers.
