Hi,
I'm using formail from procmail 3.10 under Debian GNU/Linux. I found
that, although `formail +1 -ds >>mailbox' as a procmail rule seemed to
work most of the time, it failed (producing no output) in some cases.
Trouble is, I don't really understand how formail decides where the start
of a given message in a digest is; I though it used the From: header, but
maybe I was wrong ...
Any help appreciated. Please mail me directly (as well as posting if you
like), as I'm not subscribed to this mailing-list.
I enclose one example of a failed digest below. Note that the
Crossposted-To: header is actually one *very* long line, though my mailer
won't preserve it as such ...
Cheers,
Nikhil.
