I have a question about header "types".
I read me mail my via Pegasus, and I have an option to see the
"normal" header or the extended header. I have procmail change the
header for mailing, described below. The "non-standard' header fields
like "Motto" and "Our_Fearless_Leader" only show up when I have the
"show extended header" option checked. My question is, IS there a way
for procmail to have these fields show up as a standard header instead
of as an extended header, or is an extended header something software
specific to Pegasus?
Generaly, no. That is a function of the mail-reader configuration. You
may be able to customize your viewing of mail by setting this in your
configuration. Look at something called "Custom viewer headers" or
something like that. I use Pine and don't know Pegasus.
Then again, you could write a recipe that takes the mail apart,
extracts certain headers, prepends them to the body, and then puts the
mail back together for delivery. Not too difficult, but then the
header lines would now be in the top of the body, and no longer header
lines.
