I wasn't able to reproduce this. I copied the "mail-bug-msg-pre" file
into my imap INBOX, and then used pine to copy the message back into
AFS. I tried saving to a new folder, or to an existing folder, or to a
MH folder, but each attempt preserved the data properly.
Could you verify some information for me?
0) Are we both using the same pine? (The sipb locker pine will say
"Pine 4.30L" in the upper-left corner of the screen.)
1) Are you doing the same thing I'm doing? Reading your IMAP inbox with
Pine, and then saving a message into a unix-style mbox folder in AFS?
2) Are you confident that the file "mail-bug-msg-pre" is an accurate
copy of the message that's on the server? One way to check is to use
"imtest" from the imap locker ("imtest -kp your_po_server 143"), and
then tell the server:
001 select inbox
002 fetch the_message_number (rfc822)
003 logout
I'm not sure where to go if the double-checks succeed.
