Ok, I guess I'll have to try master. What I get when I run it with nmh-1.8 mostly passes 100%, however, I did see one strange falure: inc: Received EOF on network read' first named test failure: netrc's permissions test FAIL: test/inc/test-pop ======================================= 1 of 1 test failed Please report to nmh-workers@nongnu.org ======================================= Not sure what happened there. Did fakepop crash or something? How confident are we that fakepop is doing the right thing? That's from netsec.c: rc = read(nsc->ns_readfd, readbuf, readbufsize); if (rc == 0) { netsec_err(errstr, "Received EOF on network read"); return NOTOK; } So I'm not sure what's happening there yet. I then tried increasing the line length and eventually at 100,000 it failed like this: --- 0 ---- ./test/inc/test-pop: test failed, outputs are in .../nmh-1.8/test/testdir/testmessage and .../nmh-1.8/test/testdir/Mail/inbox/11. first named test failure: credentials: file FAIL: test/inc/test-pop ======================================= 1 of 1 test failed Please report to nmh-workers@nongnu.org ======================================= And while I can find testmessage, there is no evidence of Mail/inbox/11 so I wasn't able to verify what's going on. Also, it seems to report differently each time I run it. Sometimes it says the above, sometimes: first named test failure: netrc's permissions test In all cases, however, it's failing on EOF. I don't see any crash or corruption. I'll try again with the latest later. Andy
