The Unix mail separator is "\nFrom ...". The newline Rich> must be there to distinguish one message from the next. The POP3 server spits out mails separated by "\nFrom " but not "\n\nFrom ". If the standard sez one "\n" is enough then Gnus should grok that, too, shouldn't it? Sadly, I haven't read the RFC (which one is it?) myself so I'm not really sure whether the standard requires "\n\n" or not. kai -- My heart is down, my head is turning around; I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town. -- Harry Belafonte
