Something VERY strange is going on here. I lost the second equal sign in
"id=436" in the message above too. I ran a few tests and this is happening
when my mail is piped through spamc by procmail - when I take out spamc, the
= signs come through fine.
It happens to any string with a letter, =, and a 3-digit number. Example:
>testing a=1 b=2 c=3 d=439 e=333 f=393 id=3 id=393
becomes...
>testing a=1 b=2 c=3 d439 e333 f393 id=3 id393
Is anyone else seeing anything like this? Am I insane? I swear, it appears
that spamc is doing this...
OK, I'm not insane but either spamc or my system is. Here's the proof.
Piping a test string through spamassassin, watch those = signs disappear:
yrex: ~>echo "\n\ntesting a=1 b=2 c=3 d=439 e=333 f=393 id=3 id=393"
|spamassassin -t

Can anyone else verify this or should I check myself in to the appropriate
