Message-ID: <2166-Wed04Feb2009142431+0000-jpff@cs.bath.ac.uk> (raw)

It appeared to lose the mail -- the external mailbox was cleared but
the mail did not appear. I later found it appended to the last message
but in a format that is neither one nor the other. It starts as
below....

unrmail will not touch it as there are no *** EOOH *** lines. Looks
