Subject: Single Message Problem

Hi,

   When my inbox contains only one message and I try to save it to another
folder, pine crashes and following lines are printed.

"Bad msgno 0 in mail_elt, nmsgs = 1".
Pine Exiting.
Abort

Then when I start pine again, I find that the message has been copied while it
still remains as new on my inbox. i have added the options of deleting the mail
if it is saved.

I am using a precompiled binary of 4.33 for Sun Solaris 8.0

SunOS everest 5.8 Generic_108528-01 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10

Is this a bug?

TIA
Arun

Where did you get this version from. If it's not from the UW site, I think
you'll have to contact your vendor, who must have probably modified the
source code, and inducing that bug.

Well, I downloaded it from the UW ftp site.

I am using the "mbox" file. So all the mails form the mail server are downloaded
into the mbox file in my home. Now, until last week, I used to keep all read
messages in the mbox. But after that I made a filter so that all messages which
are NOT NEW will be moved to another folder. This filter is apart from the
filters that I have for mailing lists. It was after I made this filter that it
began to crash every time I saved a message to another folder.

But now, it seems that even if there are more than one messge, pine crashes
producing the same error as described in my previous mail.
