The patch provided by the original poster does indeed appear to fix the problem. It has not been applied in version 1.3.8 or to the current CVS source.

That's because the patch introduces more problems than it fixes.

Which patch was that? and which problems did it generate?

Seems to be that being unable to use a reasonably common MUA (mutt) is a serious bug.

I fixed it by removing the "\n" from the start the assignment: tempbuf="\nFrom "; at line 45 in formatmbox.C (1.5).

Note that this code is only used if the mail item doesn't already have a 'From ' line. As such it ought to be fairly safe!
