I just got the 5.31beta.tar.Z file from uunet and have found what looks like a minor bug in the way MMDF-style mail is forwarded when using the "z" key (vm-forward-message). When forwarding such a message, the last line of the mail buffer looks like this: ^A^A^A^A------- End of forwarded message ------- Where the "^A" characters above are the control-A's that MMDF uses as message separators. This works fine with 4.41, by the way. Also, the forwarded message contains the "X-VM-v5-Data:" line, which doesn't seem to be appropriate for forwarding. After all, doesn't that line reflect information specific to your mailbox and your VM settings? Other than that, v5 is a nice improvement over 4.41. -- Steve Baumgarten | "New York... when civilization falls apart, Davis Polk & Wardwell | remember, we were way ahead of you." baumgart@esquire.dpw.com | cmcl2!esquire!baumgart | - David Letterman
