I just sent myself a message containing the line: >From Mail Delivery System <mailer-dae...@gmail.com> Sat Feb 07 16:09:10 2009
When I looked in my mbox, it wasn't escaped at all! Postfix escapes these by putting a > in front, to become: >From Mail Delivery System <mailer-dae...@gmail.com> Sat Feb 07 16:09:10 2009 I don't see any reason why mboxrd (ie, qmail) escaping wouldn't be acceptable: http://www.qmail.org/qmail-manual-html/man5/mbox.html Also, make sure you prepend > to already-prepended lines, otherwise a message like this would become corrupted when the mbox is decoded: I got a new email... >From the president! Here's the message: >From barack >Sent Today, at 2:45 PM >Got my blackberry yet? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: server-user-unsubscr...@james.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: server-user-h...@james.apache.org
