Subject: Pine and IRC Mail No.

Hello,

In my Pine INBOX I have the message count as 313. I quit pine and go to 
IRC. Now the status bar at IRC shows mail as 318. I am not able to 
understand where are the messages from 314 to 318.

I even sent a test mail to check whether I as still recieving mail. Now 
the INBOX is showing the mail to be at 314, while IRC shows it as 319.

Can anyone please help?

Thanks, Dinesh.

In article <[email-masked]>,
>the INBOX is showing the mail to be at 314, while IRC shows it as 319.

I can make a guess: a few of the messages contain lines starting with
"From " within them. IRC thinks this means the beginning of a new message,
while pine is a bit smarter about how to recognize true message
delimiters.

Greetings,
Ørjan.
