Thread: archives and "From "

archives and "From "

From
"Joachim Wieland"
Date:
I sent a patch a few hours ago and it does not show up correctly in the
archives:


http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-patches/2006-07/msg00077.php

The problem seems to be that the next line (the first one that is missing)
starts with "From " and the mail processor might think this is the next
mail in an mbox file and gets confused...

Yeah, I've mentioned that twice before.  Has anybody looked into
fixing it?

We use mhonarc for the archives ... do you know a way of fixing it?  I
don't, I just keep upgrading when a new one comes out hoping that its been
improved upon ...

I haven't used MHonArc myself but the FAQ has an item entitled "Why
does a message get split into multiple messages with no headers?"

Perfect, thanks ... have implemented the first MSGSEP formatted string,
and rebuilt the 2006-07 patches on that Joachim pointed out ... I haven't
done everything though ... if anyone knows of any 'dates' that need to be
regenerated, I'll do them specifically, just send me the URL for which
ones ...
