Re: cygwin movemail file truncation


Peter,

Please make sure your mailer doesn't quote raw e-mail addresses in
replies.  Let's not make the spam harvesters' life easier!

A quick search on the package search page at <http://cygwin.com/packages/>
shows "movemail" to be a part of the "emacs" package.  The package
announcement (<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2003-01/msg00022.html>)
states that this list is the right place to report bugs, so consider it
reported.  You'll probably want to report it properly, though, with the
"cygcheck -svr" output attached, as requested in the problem reporting
guidelines at <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.
