Re: [nmh-workers] inc only incorporates one email from spool

2018-04-11 08:03:17
Hi Scrump,

When I incorporate mail with
inc +inbox -file ~/mail/spool
I only get the oldest (first at the top of the spool file) email
incorporated into my inbox.

That's wrong behaviour.

Is this normal?

No.

It doesn't seem to behave like that on linux, it incorporates all the
emails in the spool file.

Can you arrange for ~/mail/spool to have a three simple emails that
trigger this problem, copy it before the failing inc(1), and then attach
it to your reply to the list?  That way we'll be able to inc it
ourserves, and also look for anything about it that nmh might not
expect.

There's also packf(1) to put several emails into an mbox that `inc
-file' should then pull apart if you want to try more tests.

Where would that have come from?  Did `make check' pass?
1.7.1 is now the latest and greatest, not that I'm aware it would have
fixed anything like this.
