Re: spost problems (Dcc and intelligent sigs)

Hi, Richard.  I've just encountered a couple of problems with using 
"postproc: /.../spost" in .mh_profile:

  - it appears that it causes "Dcc" not to be honoured; I've done some 
    fairly thorough tests, and without the postproc line Dcc works as 
    expected, but with the postproc line it seems to be ignored and copied 
    verbatim into the sent message.

  - it _completely_ changes the output format of "whom".  Without the 
    postproc line, whom gives output something like:

    This has been causing merry havoc with my signatures, because the exmh 
    intelligent sig code expects output of the first form.  Is this a new 
    nmh thing, or had I just not noticed it in my MH days?

The spost code in nmh is essentially the same as in MH.  I haven't
done any work on it at all.  Since the eventual goal is to merge
post and spost, I doubt I will do any work on it.
