sebbASF opened a new issue, #242: URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-ponymail-foal/issues/242
Lines starting with 'From ' are not supposed to appear in message bodies, as these indicate the start of a new mbox email. One way to detect these would be to check whether the parsed email has any headers. This is unlikely for the case of an embedded 'From '. If the mail has no headers, then it is almost certainly due to an un-quoted 'From '. It could then be processed accordingly. Simplest would be to drop it, but that means the content of its original email would be missing. It could be reported, along with the details of the previous valid 'From ' line. This could then be fixed later. It could potentially be added to the body of the previous email. etc. Note that there can be multiple 'From ' lines in a single email body. Whilst it would be possible to make 'From ' line matching stricter, this would not help in the case where a valid 'From ' line is included in an email body. Also of course, an email that includes several headers along with the 'From ' line would not be detected, but that is not likely to be a common occurrence. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
