Repl has this obnoxious feature. On very long addresses, it formats the
return address with a person's name on the first line, and the address
on the second line. For example:
To: Colin Walls
<ctw%sun.central-services.umist.ac.uk@NSFnet-Relay.AC.UK>
cc: UNIX-SW-REQUEST
<@wsmr-simtel20.army.mil:UNIX-SW-REQUEST@wsmr-simtel20.army.mil>
Unfortunately, post then chokes on this complaining that the address
loses and it's not delivered to anyone. I assume it's because there's
no legal address on the first line.
The question is, how can I fix this? Can I change my replcomps? I don't
see anything in there that sets a field width. Is post the actual culprit?
Can it be fixed?
Here's the pertinent info:
~/Mail/replcomps:
%(lit)%(formataddr %<{reply-to}%|%<{from}%|%<{sender}%|%{return-path}%>%>%>)\
%<(nonnull)%(void(width))%(putaddr To: )\n%>\
%(lit)%(formataddr{to})%(formataddr{cc})%(formataddr(me))\
%<(nonnull)%(void(width))%(putaddr cc: )\n%>\
%<{subject}Subject: Re: %{subject}\n%>\
%<{date}In-reply-to: Your message of \
%<(nodate{date}){date}%|%(pretty{date})%>.%<{message-id}
%{message-id}%>\n%>\
Fcc: outbox\n\
