Package: exim4-config Version: 4.84-3 Severity: normal Tags: patch The the default exim4 config adds an mbox-style From line to the top of each message before it is piped to maildrop.
The maildrop man page says: "maildrop does not accept an mbox-style From_ line before the first header line." Maildrop doesn't complain about the extra From_ line, but doesn't remove it. This is a related bug against maildrop: https://bugs.debian.org/737383 The exim pipe transport can be configured to not add the mbox-stlye From_ line by including 'message_prefix = ' in the transport. Here is a patch against the exim4-config package. diff --git a/debian/debconf/conf.d/transport/30_exim4-config_maildrop_pipe b/debian/debconf/conf.d/transport/30_exim4-config_maildrop_pipe index 0ba27bc..3bd8924 100644 --- a/debian/debconf/conf.d/transport/30_exim4-config_maildrop_pipe +++ b/debian/debconf/conf.d/transport/30_exim4-config_maildrop_pipe @@ -4,6 +4,8 @@ maildrop_pipe: driver = pipe path = "/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin" command = "/usr/bin/maildrop" + message_prefix = + message_suffix = return_path_add delivery_date_add envelope_to_add -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
