The program has at least 2 bugs in it:
. If the body has paragraph break (i.e., '\n') followed by the RFC822
keyword 'From', the original message will loose the last half of
the message and a phantom message will be created.
Change from my notes:
# if ( /^From /
# -to-
# if ( /^From .*? \d\d:\d\d:\d\d \d\d\d\d/
. I never could figure out where the second bug was. This one created
some messages with blank subject lines.
Never noticed this, but, it was a very very long time ago I last used
it, and since most users over here have always been pop3, probably never
had many to convert in the first place when I did use it, so risk was so
low. I think it was around the time we merged, and had to combine
sendmail/dovecot and qmail/vpopmail/dovecot systems into just a
postfix/dovecot solution, either we fluked it, or any affecteds didnt
bother to report it.
Another annoyance was prefixing the newly created mail folders with a
'.'
As Charles has already mentioned, thats how Maildir works
