How do you know whether the message comes from | /var/spool/mail/jrl, or from ~jrl/Maildir/42, or from Informix, or | from the Oracle of Delphi? You don't know that. It is only a single | message, no more, no less. If the first line of what RETR spits out is an SMTP envelope, the mail is stored remotely in mbox format. If the first line of what RETR spits out is an MMDF delimiter, the mail is stored remotely in MMDF format. If the first line of what RETR spits out is a Babyl delimiter, the mail is stored remotely in Babyl format. If you know of other common storage formats, please let me know what they are and exactly what they look like so I can include them in pop3's separator munging exclusion. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v0.9.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE3AoW1gl+vIlSVSNkRAvn4AKCP6pvPEKZmKtUnbBSiI+wpv3kNPACg4uYT hFQCzYTlvBDrzy6F0vymyfo= =BYuU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Rat \ Ingredients of Happy Fun Ball include an Minion of Nathan - Nathan says Hi! \ unknown glowing substance which fell to PGP Key: at a key server near you! \ Earth, presumably from outer space.
