continuations as body lines and doesn't parse any of the following
headers.<P>
-Workaround:
+Workaround is to use "mda" keyword or "-mda" switch:
<pre>
-mda "sed -e1,2D | formail | /usr/bin/procmail -d <user>"
+mda "sed -e '1s/^\t/Received: /' | formail | /usr/bin/procmail -d <user>"
</pre>
+Replace \t with exactly one tabulation character.
+
+You should also consider using "fetchall" option because Geocities' servers
+sometimes think that the first 45 messages have already been read.<P>
Fix: Get an email provider that doesn't suck. Geocities' pop-up adds
are lame, you should boycott them anyway.<P>
