The problem is that there are only certain headers defined by RFC822
to
be legal in the header of an email. After the header appears a single
blank line as a delimiter between the header and the body. If illegal
lines are found it the header before the blank line, fetchmail
normally
will not retrieve the email. According to the programmers, to code
fetchmail to actually retrieve such mail would be cumbersome and
error-prone.
So let me get this staight. Microslow Orifice's Outlook 2000 or XP, or
Outlook Express, or ANY OTHER POP3 CLIENT I'VE USED has no problems
retrieving these badly formatted messages - but
fetchmail/sendmail/postfix has a problem? I thought I was moving to
Linux to make things EASIER.
