mda tool not delivering

[Felix Lechner]

Hi,

What's a good place to ask questions about running public-inbox-mda,
please?

I can't get public-inbox-mda to import on-disk messages. They end up in
the emergency Maildir. My configuration and a sample message are below.

Also, why is it a fault when the "inbox address [is] specified in To: or
Cc: header"? Isn't that how messages appear on a mailing list? Thanks!

Kind regards
Felix Lechner

Hi,

This website hopes to unify some email-based practices for software
contributions using patches.  The service is currently vaporware.

We hope to combine the best features of Debbugs [1] Mumi [2] Public
Inbox [3] and others, while adding novel ideas of our own.

Please send patches to this account for now, i.e. help@patchwise.org.

Kind regards
Felix

You probably need to set ORIGINAL_RECIPIENT=help@patchwise.org
in your environment.

(postfix and presumably other MTAs do this when invoking
 public-inbox-mda)

Erm, that should be "not" specified, I think....  In other
words, Bcc-ing a public mailing list is often spammy or
deceptive behavior.  Patch coming later.

If you're running public-inbox.git, `lei import' should be
faster for importing on-disk mbox{rd,cl,cl2,o}, maildir, MH.
And there'll probably be a `public-inbox-ctl' tool to inject
messages from HTTP(S) ActivityPub requests.

I'm really behind on making releases, unfortunately; but all
the email-only stuff should be OK in public-inbox.git; and I've
been bogged down by offline stuff this year :<
