For anyone using procmail with formail for filtering email (normally *nix), I've written a rule that seems to handle the broken Date: fields we've been seeing. It works well enough for sorting to work properly with pine and kmail. YMMV.
--- begin procmail rule --- :0 fw * ^TO(SURVPC@tmonroe|survpc@softcon) * Date: \(No, or invalid, date\.\) | formail -i "Date: `date '+%e %b %y %r %Z'`" --- end procmail rule --- This one's set up as a filter, meaning it will modify the message headers but return it to the handling queue (i.e. to sort into folders with another rule.) It can be tweaked to handle different headers and variations. Something similar could be done with sed as a filter if you're not running procmail. I wonder if something similar could be set up on the respective list handling servers for these lists so all users could benefit? Anyone doing mail handling with procmail/formail under BasicLinux? - Bob To unsubscribe from SURVPC send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe SURVPC in the body of the message.
