Package: slrn
Version: 0.9.8.1pl2~cvs20070125-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
If the first References reference would cause the line to wrap (ie.
longer than 78 characters), slrn wraps it such that it doesn't parse
correctly according to the rules:
eg:
References:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
This breaks threading in many other newsreaders.
See the following for some examples
http://groups.google.com/group/news.software.readers/browse_thread/thread/795d03dde2b2188e
The patch is to prevent slrn from wrapping References headers.
