[comp.mail.mh] Line length limits for .mh_sequences

sean@dmr.asa.COM (Sean Baker) (02/26/91)

I'm running MH 6.5.  When I use "pick" on a large folder
(1000+ messages), sometimes the line for the sequence in the
.mh_sequences file gets so long, all MH programs fail
complaining that the file is "poorly formatted".  The
solution is to simply remove the file and try pick on a
smaller number of messages.

However, I notice when I am running MH 6.7 on another
machine (same model), I no longer have the problem.  Where
can I find the limit for line lengths in the code?  I would
just like to know what the limit is.

Many thanks,

Sean.
