hi,
I recently discovered that the metamail package has beem removed from
Debian distributions (I don't know when, but it seems that this removal
is rather old)
Do anybody know the reason of this removal?
I could re-install it from a RedHat rpm, and up to now, it works perfectly.
best regards,

Hi,

I get the error:
