Subject: buglet in p0.40 nnheader.el xref handling [patch]
Date: 26 Oct 1998 23:16:35 -500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <vxkyaq2abbw.fsf@pocari-sweat.jprc.com> (raw)

I have some very, very old mail archives, predating ding entirely but
nnml-equivalent from the outset nonetheless, having no Xref: headers.
I have now set gnus-extra-headers and nnmail-extra-headers, which
leads to a desire to write Xref: fields, which fails when there is no
Xref content.

An invocation of nnml-generate-nov-databases tripped over this error.

OTOH, this creates an xref field with no content, which might not be
proper; I wasn't really sure, but it's not hurting me, as far as I can 
see.

(Line numbers may vary, as I'm busy elsehow.)
