Hi, Umm, could you send a few messages to your isp, susan, such that the messages fall through your mailagent .rules file, and see if the ~/mbox.sgk file looks ok? (if you mail it to me, I could have a look). Are you annotating the mail message in any way?
I haven't used MH, but I routinely use VM (under emacs) to read mail that escapes mailagent (which is my personal mail), and have never had problems ... manoj -- 9 more days in the frozen northlands.
