Subject: serious mail segmentation pb

Hi all,

I am using gnus5.5 with emacs20.2, I use
it to read news and mail; I get mail from
a imap4 and pop3-able server with movemail
compiled with pop support. I'm using
french MULE extensions to correctly put
accents in my messages.

[I tried pop3.el with no success (gets stuck
with ``read 1/29 messages'') --- and pop3.el
was reported having troubles with emacs and mule]

Panic! Mail segmentation is incorrect:
I find ``From:'' lines as the last line of
some message, after the signature, which would
mean that the splitting is made just *after*
the header (???); the beginning of mail text
is often lacking (one line or two); I get
sometimes ^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@... lines at
the end of messages.

This is a *very serious* pb, since I have
already lost a few mails or received some
partially destroyed. So, I am gonna change
for procmail as an intermediate solution,
but I really would like to know if there's
a real explanation and if I must face other
oddities

Thanx
