The bug is that an older Gnus was placing messages into your nnfolder without quoting `From ' lines inside of other messages. You can fix it manually by editing your archive folder, searching for `^From ', and changing ones that aren't really at the beginning of a true message to '>From '. It's hard to fix this automagically, although you could maybe use a heuristic since it seems that the real ones are followed by my Sender line in my archive at least. Current gnus properly sticks the '>' before any embedded `From ' lines. So you shouldn't have to go through this again. > A blueburry muffin from me to the one who fixes it.... ;-) -- David Moore <dmoore@ucsd.edu> | Computer Systems Lab __o UCSD Dept.

In the end, it took me about 10 minutes to go through 20 megabytes of mail folders. Interactive regexp searching is pretty fast, even when you're doubling checking everything.

Mine too, but aren't the saved headers user customizable? In nnfolder+archive, the backend I had trouble with, the only valid `From ' lines all start off `From nobody'.
