A mailbox near and dear to me is suffering corruption issues. Mailutil

This is very strange; this error message should never happen when opening a
mailbox for the first time. This error message occurs only with traditional
UNIX mailbox files.
It basically is saying that newly read contents of the file do not have a
"From " header. But, it would not have opened the mailbox as traditional
UNIX format if there wasn't a "From " header at the start of the file.
Have you made any modifications to the software, or acquired it from a third
party?
Nope, compiled from scratch. This is 2004g, I believe.
Do you have an /etc/c-client.cf file, and if so what are its contents?
No.
Would you mind sending a copy of the file to me (not the list) as a MIME
attachment so that I can analyze the file?
Sent separately.
Thanks, and sorry for the difficulties.
Not a problem at all. Help is appreciated.
