maildrop adds a newline to mbox files before delivering new messages.
|
||
|
|
This effectively alters the final message in the mbox, causing a
|
||
|
|
running mutt (and maybe other MUAs) with that mbox open to freak out
|
||
|
|
and lose unsaved state [1]. The maildrop folks prefer to keep this
|
||
|
|
(out of spec) behaviour to keep from breaking users working
|
||
|
|
configurations as well as to avoid problems caused by other out of
|
||
|
|
spec mail delivery agents (which may aberrantly neglect to leave a
|
||
|
|
blank line at the end of the mbox) [2].
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This patch disables this behaviour of maildrop allowing an MUA to
|
||
|
|
gracefully handle the delivery of new mail to an open folder.
