Hi Ken,
If the message-id header doesn't match the RFC 5322 syntax, should we
care? I say no.
Nurse! My pills!
Seriously, I was thinking of writing something to verify the minutia
separate from nmh so if nmh ducks the issue that's fine by me.
I remember people saying that they had a list of messages that nmh
dealt poorly with; it would be nice to try those out against a
hypothetically-new nmh parser.
I've been wondering about a corpus of emails for testing programs. The
only public one I've found is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enron_Corpus
which is going to be recent-era emails. Perhaps if folk on the list
have old emails that were from public mailing lists at the time, we
could build a bit of a collection for testing purposes? I guess
anonymising private ones would be a can of worms and weaken their worth
anyway? Perhaps a semi-private collection of those could be collated
though, passed by hand to a known interested party?
Cheers, Ralph.
