Created attachment 71240 [details] To mbox exported mails You may notice the additional From_ lines at the beginning from messages not in the selected list. From unknown@unknown.invalidSun May 20 14:47:11 2012 Notice further the two From_ lines: From thomas@arend-rhb.de Sun, 20 May 2012 14:25:20 +0200 From thomas@arend-rhb.de Sun May 20 14: 31:55 2012 Expected is one From_ line wth the date in ctime format: From thomas@arend-rhb.de Sun May 20 14:25:20 2012
One reason for the additional From_ line ma be, that the message was passed through formail to add a variable in the header. When you pass a message through a formail filter formail -A "X-Filter-Test: `date -R`" a From_ line is added with a space (made visible by an _ ) between colon and 2DIGIT minute. From thomas@arend-rhb.de Sun May 20 15:_30:54 2012 Filtering on command line with formail inserts a correct From_ line. From thomas@arend-rhb.de Sun May 20 15:37:41 2012
This error is also in Kmail Version 1.36.6 with the difference that both From_ line have a time in ctime format and there is no additional space between the ":" and the 2DIGIT Minutes. --- From thomas@arend-rhb.de Tue May 15 22:01:41 2012 From thomas@arend-rhb.de Sun May 20 16:16:08 2012 Return-Path: <thomas@arend-rhb.de> [...] X-Original-To: thomas Delivered-To: thomas@arend-rhb.de Received: by k2.arend.tksd (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 1A05E28A8B; Tue, 15 May 2012 22:01:41 +0200 (CEST) Date: Tue, 15 May 2012 22:01:41 +0200 To: thomas@arend-rhb.de Subject: test User-Agent: Heirloom mailx 12.2 01/07/07 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: <20120515200142.1A05E28A8B@k2.arend.tksd> From: thomas@arend-rhb.de (Thomas Arend) X-UIDL: MRF!!JWc"!8Kh"!9k$#!

I don't understand. Bug is from your formail no ? Kmail doesn't add it. Otherwise give me the filter which makes it. Thanks

Construct a filter that will fit every time and send the message through "formail". Who else could add a white space when not kmail? I see not need for formail to say "Upps, Im called by kmail! Let me add a nasty white space to confuse the caller."
This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present? If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of kmail2 (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.12 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
