Sorry about the delay, but a cold and various other matters got in the way. I have now tried killing the (: hc:fancy-split-spamassassin) line, leaving spam detection to the mail server, and that seems to have helped. So if you want to dig deeper, you should probably try finding out how constructs like (defun hc:fancy-split-spamassassin () (save-excursion (set-buffer " *nnmail incoming*") (call-process-region (point-min) (point-max) "spamc" t t nil "-f") (goto-char (point-min)) (when (re-search-forward "^x-spam-flag: yes$" nil t) ;; edit the following to the group where spam is to be dropped "mail.spam"))) could end up MULE-kicking the incoming buffer.

Yes, but this is my office setup, and "things are not supposed to work that way". If at all possible, software should be installed by our systems people, and they have a well-founded need to stay with what is in the standard distributions. So if the problem is fixable in .emacs, that is strongly preferable. (I realize that this scenario is maddening for software maintainers - I am one myself in another capacity. Then again, I'm also way too familiar with the "version leapfrog syndrome" that was common before the advent of organised distributions.) -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard ุster Farimagsgade 5, Entr.B c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics PO Box 2099, 1014 Cph.
