While trying to figure this problem out, I noticed that an additional header was getting inserted in my mail messages headers. A "From nobody " header was getting pre-pended to the messages. I searched for nobody and found a few instances where From nobody gets inserted into the message headers, but I think there is one in particular that is causing the problem. nnfolder-save-mail inserts this header, but it also searches through the message and inserts a > on any "From " line, which kills the original "From " header so I end up with: >>From nobody "Tue Mar 09 14:39:02 1999" > From true-sender@foo.bar.com "Tue Mar 09 14:39:02 1999" To: holder@rsn.hp.com Subject: etc: This functionality doesn't exist in the nnml-save-mail but does exist in nnmbox-save-mail and gnus-output-to-mail. So, I don't know which one is the culprit. I've changed the nobody to nobody- so I can identify who inserts the From nobody, but I would appreciate some direction. Thanks, Shane
