Package: enemies-of-carlotta
Version: 1.2.1-1
Severity: minor
After some testing of EoC I found that it mangles mail that conforms to rfc
822/2822 in that it has CRLF instead of just LF line terminators.
To reproduce, create a real file like this:
$ cat > /tmp/mail << EOF
Subject: some meaningless subject
To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
some text
EOF
Then convert it to MS-DOS style line endings (the format specified by RFC
822/2822), you can use unix2dos or flip -m for this.
Now have EoC deliver it to some test mailing list unset:
$ cat /tmp/mail | [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] \
enemies-of-carlotta --incoming
Now look into the archive of the list and observe that the message got
mangled:
List-Id: <foo.localhost>[LF]
List-Help: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[LF]
List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[LF]
List-Subscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[LF]
List-Post: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[LF]
List-Owner: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[LF]
Precedence: bulk[LF]
Subject: some meaningless subject[LF]
To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>[CRCRLF]
some text[CRCRLF]
[LF]
--[LF]
To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
pretty strange.
Now, on exim this doesn't actually happen because it translates CRLF to LF
when going into the pipe transport. I suppose other MTAs do similar munging.
