The header should be Undisclosed-Recipient:; or <local-p...@imap.poczta.onet.pl> Looks like something is using the group name 'Undisclosed-Recipient:;' as LOCAL-PART of an address specification.

I do not know if word "broken" is proper in my previous post, since this > is rather "feature" than "bug". I'd say it's a bug as it doesn't understand that the syntax of an 'address' in headers can be a 'group' as well as a 'mailbox'. (Using 'quotes' for the terms in RFC-822). -- Tixy

ter the Stable release gets them.

rly sure the machine will boot without any of these present. Machine will boot with a single init program (could be a shell like busybox) that is stored in an initrd. So this minimalist install partition would just have /boot/vmlinuz and /boot/initrd.img (or just vmlinuz if the initrd was built into the kernel binary). Of course, this may not meet the functional requirements, but the OP hasn't specified any of those, just that they system be 'minimalist'. -- Tixy
