I've been trying to install 3.11pre4 on an SCO Openserver system. Aside
from saying make is twisted, it doesn't give me any messages i have not
seen before. :)
And when compiled, it does almost everything exactly as I would like.
The problem is that it is not writing mail to folders in a readable
format.
What makes the format unreadable? If there are control-A's between the
messages than check the very top of your config.h. If it aint't that,
you'll need to describe it better (preferably by including an example).
Thats is the problem. :-) I'll check this out.
Version 3.10 is installed on the system, and works fine - except for some
flaky looking logfiles and a refusal to seperate the headers from the body
of a message. :(
1) what do you mean "refusal to seperate"? Is the blank line missing?
I mean that if I use a recipe to seperate the body and headers - it will
do the proper testing, but fail to seperate them. ie:
:0 B
* ^item1
* ^item2
| cat > file
results in headers being placed in the file with the message body. This
works on other systems, just not this one. :(
2) are you *sure* it isn't some recipe doing it? Does it do this if you
remove your .procmailrc?
3) flaky how?
It will generate a log that looks like this:
No From apparent
Subject: revamotd
Folder: ($FORMAIL -r; cat /ftp/pub/da/databasix/revamotd) | $SENDMAI
No From apparent
Subject: Procmail log stats
^mfolder
No From apparent
Subject: Re: revamotd
^mfolder

What is worth doing is worth the trouble of asking somebody to do.
