Re: [fetchmail]Fetchmail seems to lose part of headers

Steve Shockley <steve(_at_)shockley(_dot_)net>:
I'm using Fetchmail 5.8.4 (built from ports) on OpenBSD 2.9.  It uses
procmail to deliver directly to Maildir-style mailboxes, and that's served
via Courier-imapd.  It seems that when I receive a message with lots of
headers (mailing lists form Sourceforge), part of the header is lost and the
rest is inserted into the message.  I don't think it's the procmail mta,
because I also tried using maildrop with the same results.  The problem
doesn't occur when I use Outlook Express to download pop3 mail directly.
The ISP's pop3 server identifies itself as POP-Max Version 4.6.0.9.  The
point where the headers break isn't always at the same point, but it happens
on most (Sourceforge) messages.

Can you send me a sample message that exhibits the problem, so I can try to
reproduce this?
