For some reason, the Mail program that comes with slackware
requires a blank line in front of all 'From ' lines in the
spool mailbox. Messages in the box that are not separated
by a blank line get joined. however, a lot of mail doesn't
seem to follow that convention. For example, if I mail
myself three messages without trailing blank lines in the
message body, trying to read them with Mail results in my
seeing a single mail message of the concatenation of the
three original messages. Tkpostage (for example) sees
three separate messages.
I must have something set up strangely or I'm sure others
would have commented on this problem. Does anyone know
of a fix?
Thanks for any help!
