Notes
=====
- A line in the body of a post is considered to be original if it
does *not* match the regular expression /^\s{0,3}(?:>|:|\S+>|\+\+)/.
- All text after the last cut line (/^-- $/) in the body is
considered to be the author's signature.
- The scanner prefers the Reply-To: header over the From: header
in determining the "real" email address and name.
- Original Content Rating (OCR) is the ratio of the original content
volume to the total body volume.

Thanks.
You know too much :)
I knew an external global package can be one of the solutions, just
that yours is much more elegant. In one sense it is overkill as
resources can be shared among all types of plugins, not just the same
type. OTOH, if Main needed more control or knowledge of the loaded
plugins, as is usually the case, the structure is already in place and
probably can be included with Main.
It would have been nice to have a resource class that can be declared
in a package but is global, so running the same package in a different
threads it could be locked and shared.

Hi Tad,
I have changed my email ID so this won't give you guys an error, but I will
definitely get more spam mail daily.
Also, I learned that my new reading service provider needs me to write more
new text than the amount of old text already present. So this limits my
bottom-postings, but I will definitely try to follow it as far as possible.
Regards,
Kasp.

Subject: unixes: determine if file is an image
Message-Id: <3c6df95c.0301060627.468214a1@posting.google.com>
Hello! I am happily using Image::Magick, but one thing I can't figure
out:
How my Perl script should decide about whether a file is an image or
not.
I'm interested in any way this could be achieved, but preferably with
Image::Magick. (Doing Read($file) or Ping($file) to a file that isn't
an image seems to cause indefinite waiting...)
I've looked through ready-made scripts I found on Internet and see
solutions like
$filename =~ /\.jpg/ . This isn't what I want because I don't want to
rely on extensions.
My tests have been on a mac os x platform, so basically if anyone has
this problem for him/herself on a linux/freebsd or similar platform,
any advice posted here would be greatly appreciated!!!

I would definitely check out the "file" command. It'll cost you a system
call but it also picks out the non-image files while ImagMagic is not
always able to. E.g.:
<transcript>
bash$ file tmp.wav
tmp.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit,
stereo 11025 Hz
bash$ identify tmp.wav
identify: no delegate for this image format (tmp.wav) [No such file or
directory].
identify: Missing an image file name.
</transcript>

Have a look at the File::MMagic module. The checktype_filename() method
returns the MIME-type for the file. In case of images this should match
'^image'.

Your regexp does not go make sense with the simple example you have given.
But I assume, based on the regexp, that each line from <INPUT> is hardocded
and contains 183 characters of junk, followed by 6 characters to be tested,
followed by 60 characters of junk and what you need to add should be in the
last 10 characters. Right??
It might be a good idea to print $1 and see if the input is in correct
format and that $1 is not actually empty.
print $1; # Add this line and give it a shot.
It would be great if someone more experienced could fine tune the regexp
that you are using.

Sorry, but it will not replace multiple <br> inside of a <pre> block. The
g-option will not help because it does not restart the scan.
The g-option had been a leftover from the OPs code - it is not necessary.

Indeed - regexes are tricky ;-)
My suggestion does not work with
- more than one <pre> block per line
- <pre> blocks spanning lines
Both requirements are not easy to fulfil by 'substitute'-regexes....
Kindly Mike.

I'd say this is just another instance of the exception I gave above.

Per the RFCs (2821 specifically) MTAs shouldn't handle header addresses
at all, so there can be no definition of how they should do it. The RFC
that defines the format of an Internet e-mail message, 2822, does so
independantly of the transport used, and specifies that multiple
addresses in headers are comma-separated. Obviously all MUAs need to
follow this in order to properly compose a message for submission to an
MTA, as well as to properly parse received messages.
The *user interface* of a MUA can of course present multiple addresses,
and accept them as input, in whatever form its author wants, independant
of any RFC. However it seems less than obviously useful to do it in a
form that resembles an actual e-mail header (e.g. the string "To: "
followed by multiple addresses on a single line), but out of the blue
picking a separation character that is different from the one that is
used in the "real" header. The predictable result is the confusion that
is the very cause of this subthread (the original question was about
submitting a message via SMTP rather than about MUA user interfaces,
btw).
