Pardon me if the details are fuzzy and for tossing the original patch in
the first place, but I seem to recall that someone had posted a patch
for mh6.6 that fixed the bug that caused it to put components in the
middle of lines when fgets returned only part of a line.

Specifically, if you set the body  component to '>' in your format file
for replies, you'd sometimes get lines that looked like this:

>some text from the original letter. Some more text> yet another bit of text

That second '>' in the line above is what I'm talking about..

Can anyone help?

Thanks,
