Thanks very much, the new patches make a big improvement! I haven't yet looked at really long headers or particulars of the multi-line handling such as those Sumeet is commenting on, but it does clear up my main problem (and user's complaint) of a line break coming right after the list tag, and hiding the substantive subject matter from Eudora users.

The mea culpa: these patches didn't work until it occurred to me to try restarting mailmancntl (i.e. /etc/init.d/mailman). I didn't do that with previous patches, either, so they might have made more difference than I thought at the time.

Actually, I don't really understand why a restart from mailmancntl should make any difference. I thought it was something like the old qrunner that ran from crontab, and that each posting meant a new Python process which would see the new library files. Is there some persistent Python process that needs to be made to reread the libraries??

Thanks again,

Mitch

I replaced Header.py by cping it and placing your file in ~mailman/pythonlib/email/ and running patch < headerpatch.diff which ran successfully. thx, sumeet.
