Subject: Pine 3.89 dumps core on Digital Alpha AXP OSF/1 V2.0

Hi,

I know that the osf port is unsupported code, but here goes.

I compiled the 3.89 release on OSF/1 V2.0 on a DEC3000/400, it compiled 
with no errors. When I invoke Pine, it starts the main menu, but when it 
gets to the bottom line, it crashes:

Bug in Pine detected: "Out of free storage".
Exiting Pine
Abort process (core dumped)

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Chris

Chris,

This may be a bug having to do with a bogus header line in one of the
messages in your INBOX.  The specific situation I saw cause this was an
address consisting of a single '\' character.  This bug will be fixed in the
next release of Pine and in the c-client found in the latest imap.tar.Z found
on ftp.cac.washingotn.edu. 

Thanks for the report!
