That's a great idea! Thanks.

This email should have been copied to [EMAIL PROTECTED], so that
there's a record of it.

2.7-34 and 2.7-35, not 2.7.34 and 2.7.35. Nevertheless, I'm currently
running potato and the problem persists.

Test case: save a multipart email to a file /tmp/multi. Run:
metamail /tmp/multi
You'll find /tmp/mm.* files left after the invocation of metamail, and
they're empty. If you don't, we can investigate further.

You could always set one of the flags or set the bug priority to
'fixed'. Only the maintainer or submitter should close bug reports.
