Hi Sven!

I couldn't get that g command to work, had to change it to

        :g/^Content-Length:.*/d

which seemed to do the trick.  There were Content-Length
lines in the file, which are now gone.

However the problem is still there - on the mailbox I tried,
pine still sees 102 messages and mutt sees only 3.

Any other ideas?

Thanks for that tip, although obviously I won't be able to
try it on my corrupt(?) mailboxes until mutt can read them OK.
