Hello ,

A few days ago, we switch from a qpopper daemon (which gives a high disk =
activity) to=20
the last version of tpop3d (1.3.5) (context is : Sun/solaris 2.6).

For disk activity, everything is ok , but ....

Some users reporte me a problem in mail parsing ....

In fact, if in the body of the mail we found  :


1
2
3

From string
4
5
6

the original mail is splitted into 2 mails (first with 1 2 3 and space =
line, second with 4 5 6 lines)
(verified thru a telnet on pop3 port and with pop command 'retr')

On the unix mail server a 'mail -H' shows only 1 mail.

NB : if in place of \nFrom we have a \n\nFrom everithing is ok (1mail)

Thank's for help.
