Subject: elm-style-save=yes + '%'-hack From: addresses + UNIX

From: "Michael J. Corrigan" <[email-masked]>

Say that received mail has a From: address like user%host@domain.
With elm-style-save=yes option, when saving the message, pine prompts
with a default savefilename 'user%host'. If you accept the default
then pine refuses to create a savefilename with a '%' sign
(although it could).

Is there some way to get around this problem ? (i.e. to have the
default savefile name be based on the From: line and be permissible
to pine)

The user who has this problem wanted pine to strip the "%host"
in addition to the @domain.

Is this feature worthy of consideration as a pine-enhancement ?

Apologies if this matter is covered in the documentation
or has been resolved on the pine-info list (looked but didn't find).

Thanks
