Some of you have been noticing the way the archiver here on Chez Vrolet
has been handling inbound messages. One of the most common ones I've
seen thus far is what appears to be a spillover at 10.2 kilobytes of
message, then continuing to a new message.
Digging around, I found this is a known issue - with the file format.
What happens is that the archiver sees a line with the word "From" in
the very front (no spaces, no nothing), and assumes it's a new message,
so it's more how it's parsing the archive datasets. It's actually due
to the format of the archive file itself not coinciding with what is
based in reality. =O.o=
I'm currently researching a way to fix this - it's the first time I've
run into this issue, to be perfectly honest. What I do know is that the
data is intact, just parsing funny. Hopefully I figure out a fix to
this soon. =^^=
