Please consider Message-ID: , in de.comm.software.mailserver (01 Jul 2003 15:47:30 +0200, from Roland Wolters). Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-15; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This is what a body section looks like in Tin: >>meldet er sich dort in eienr normalen Session zuerst mit dem 'Helo' an, >>es folgt die Antowrt des Servers ('250-...'), danach kommt ein 'Mail >>From: rolandwolters@web.de' und ein 'Rcpt To: soundos@xyz.de'. > > Wenn das so kommt, sind Mailclient und Mailservern kaputt. > > 1. die spitzen Klammern in MAIL FROM und RCPT TO fehlen; und: > > 2. HELO darf keine mehrzeiligen Antworten der Art 250- nach sich ziehen And this is what it looks like in Gnus (yes the indentation is a verbatim copy & paste): >>meldet er sich dort in eienr normalen Session zuerst mit dem 'Helo' an, >>es folgt die Antowrt des Servers ('250-...'), danach kommt ein 'Mail >>From: rolandwolters@web.de' und ein 'Rcpt To: soundos@xyz.de'. > Wenn das so kommt, sind Mailclient und Mailservern kaputt. > 1. die spitzen Klammern in MAIL FROM und RCPT TO fehlen; und: 2. HELO > darf keine mehrzeiligen Antworten der Art 250- nach sich ziehen Apparently, Gnus chose to reformat this quoted part; this doesn't look right to me. Besides that, it seems (for a while now) that ^, AR and AT are totally hosed, and C-u 50 M-g also behaves in a different way from q C-u 50 RET. I suffered from .newsrc.eld corruption a while back, but can this be the root of this AR/AT problem? I get all sorts of errors "This is a pseudo-article" or when pressing AT, I see the root of the thread I'm looking at, but all leaves in the thread that were visible before disappear. -- Matthias Andree
