I checked this with the upstream. Short answer: This is the design decision by the upstream. Please use "reformail -f0" On Sun, Feb 02, 2014 at 12:36:25PM +0200, Andrei POPESCU wrote: > Package: maildrop > Version: 2.7.1-1 ... > I'm using maildrop to deliver to various Maildirs (which are then > indexed with notmuch and read with mutt).

If the message can possibly start with empty lines, and a From_ line, use reformail -f0 to remove any initial empty lines, and replace a From_ line with a proper “Return-Path:” header; then pipe it to maildrop. Here is a quoted message from the upstream: | The addition of this was announced but not included in upstream | changelog. | http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=31458904 | | Basically, if the mail server is giving maildrop a message with the | From_ line, maildrop no longer gets rid of it. The change is to either | reconfigure the mail server so that it no longer attaches a From_ line | to the message, or use reformail to get rid of it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
