Hi,
I have a problem with thunderbird and Cyrus 2.2.12. One of my user is trying
to transfer messages that have been downloaded from a POP account. When he
try to drag the message from his POP account folder in Thunderbird to a Cyrus
IMAP account folder, he receive an error "Message contains invalid header".
Looking at the message source, I can see that this message have an SMTP
envelope header "From blabla..." at the top. I guess that this is the
problematic header. Is this the case ? If yes, is there a workaround ?
What is really mystifying me is that some other message that also have the
"From blabla" header import correctly. This make me doubt it's this
particuliar header that is problematic.
I ran into this problem when I migrated from uw-imap to cyrus-imap. The
scripts that I used/wrote stripped out the "From foo.." header. Those
headers were only supposed to be used as message separaters in the unix
mbox format, not displayed to clients. Go figure.
I can't explain why some work and some don't.
Andy
