dbmail-export bug

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hello,

It seems the format of the mbox file created from exporting
a user's
mailbox (containing a "-" in it's name) with
dbmail-export is reversed,
as in first body of a message, then it's header.

Can someone else please confirm this?

The very first header in the mbox is then a phoney one it
seems, from
nobodyfoo.

For example:
dmbail-export -u username -m "linux/dbmail-dev"
-o dbmail.mbox

Greetings,
Ralph

Nobody? Nothing? Am I asking in an incorrect manner here or
something?
This is my second post (of two) to this list that appears to
go totally
unnoticed and unanswered. All I am trying to do is help, but
it is a bit
hard when there is only one-way traffic.

No it's not.

apparently not then, eh?

feature not a bug. Phony From_ headers are prepended if the
envelope
sender can't be deduced from the message. New messages that
are inserted
will have there envelope information stored seperately.

Try including some illustration and examples, and also what
you have
done to make sure it's nothing in your setup that's
causing this.

# dbmail-export -u ralph -m "linux/dbmail-dev"

exporting [ralph/linux/dbmail-dev]
exporting finished

Please see attachment for result (PS: I pruned the mailbox
before to
keep the size down ~ this mail directory had 6 messages
only).

OK, I'm sorry I sounded harsh, even though it did get a
reaction  ~
Maybe it's the hot weather we are having here I don't
know. My apologies.

The first mail actually has a screenshot of the lacking
"Re: " in the
message overview ~ I don't know what more to add. This
email has an
attachment of a small export.

I upgrade to the latest svn almost every second day, and
even with
today's svn I am getting the same results, for both
threads. Running
Gentoo (current) on my server compiled with only the
--with-mysql flag.
The /etc/dbmail.conf file is pretty much standard, only with
personal
settings for database.

Messages are delivered via dbmail-smtp to a mysql-4.1.20
database with
innodb tables.

Any ideas?

Greetings,
Ralph
