I think I've solved the problem with the References header with this change in mlist-backend (line 104): #$headvalue{'references'}= "References: ". join(' ',@refs). "\n"; $headvalue{'references'}= "References: ". join("\n\t ",@refs). "\n"; I'll see if I can trace the other issues in a similar way, though this should hopefully take care of the majority of failures. > > Or if you could point me to (better) alternative scripts. > > There is mailpost which is shipped with INN. > And perhaps mail2news.pl at the end of this page: > http://www.arved.de/bsd/inn/ Thanks for these pointers.

My setup is mainly for following lkml. I added some Debian lists as a kind of bonus without checking if they were available elsewhere. It also gives me more control over article expiration and such. Thanks again for your help. Cheers, FJP
