There absolutely should be a blank line. I think though that the order is wrong: mutt expects that a message (i.e. a From_ line) appears at the old EOF marker, and that the EOF marker is on/after a blank line. I think that if you adjust your filter to write the message and then a blank line instead of a blank line and then a message, the error will go away. -- David Champion • d...@bikeshed.us
