[comp.mail.mh] buggy popd in mh-6.7.1

ggm@brolga.cc.uq.oz.au (George Michaelson) (06/03/91)

We're having lots of trouble with popd from this distribution running
on a system using MMDF style maildrop delimiters.

The daemon seems to be loosing sync with the mailbox, deleting the first
4 or 5 characters of the Recieved: line at the head of messages immediately
following mmdfdelim2, the pop client dies, the daemon is left in a stuck
state and nobody feels very happy.

Unfortunately none of the other pop daemons out there seem to understand
MMDF mailfile format at all. 

Anybody else seen this, and have any fixes?
