I believe this is a known bug. The problem is that formail doesn't
cope well with files it doesn't have permission to access. So there's
probably nothing wrong with Matt's compiler (but very much with the
recipe he got from that dreaded book, and with formail, too).

Haven't verified whether this is still happening with 3.13.1 but I
know it does with 3.11pre4 which is what Matt was using, IIRC.
Ah, I see what you were talking about. Stephen fixed this bug in
version 3.11pre5.
