after invoking mairix, the result(s) will display in the second line of the header: X-source-folder: <location> the line is added by mairix. the first header line is also added: From mairix@mairix Mon Jan 1 12:34:56 1970 and must be altered if one is recovering a missing post and adding it to an mbox collection such as ~/mail/mutt I use mbox and mairir (long time). -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode
