I am having a problem with Mush. I am trying to modify the mbox.saver
shell script from rn to drop the "Article %a of %C" line, and the leading
"Path:" line as well. I want to do this because I have the following
line in my .mushrc:
set hdr_format = "%25n %-3N %M (%3l) %28s"
The problem comes up because if I am reading a news mail folder, the
from_ line contains the UUCP bang path, and not the senders real address
and name. So, as I said, I tried modifying mbox.saver. Now, I drop the
offending lines, and use as the first line of the message the second
line of the actual article, as it is in %A (rn notation, /usr/spool/news/...
in my case), changing the from: to a from_ (i.e., "From "). Nonetheless,
Mush is not recognizing this line. Why not? Does Mush require the
MSG_SEPARATOR line to contain something other than simply a leading from_?
I compiled Mush with no changes to MSG_SEPARATOR (i.e., left it undefined).
Help?...
