I use Mairix many times a day and would love to see it continue to be
maintained.

Thanks,

You can make the scrubbed version publically available.

I don't think the mbox file in question was that large, only 24310
bytes.  There must have been some kind of bogus character in there.

In fact, looking through the file, I see a To: line that looks like
this:

To: 
  f...@bar.com

I'll send you a scrubbed version of the file under separate cover.  This
file gives the "Out of memory" error every time.  If you could use it to
improve Marirx, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

Ed
