[fetchmail]Fetchmail Bug Report / Feature Request

2002-03-05 04:57:51
Hi,

when fetchmail is collecting my mail, some messages will be oversized
(certainly when using the -l flag).  Currently all fetchmail tells me
is that there have been oversized messages, and how many.  However, I
think it would be far better if fetchmail could optionally tell one
the following about each mail:

* The sender
* The subject
* The mailbox
* possibly other fields from the header?

It would then be possible to sort these messages according to their
(intended) recipient and to notify them about the fact that (possibly
important, possibly spam) mail is still waiting.  This would make
fetchmail's oversized mail warnings much more useful.
