Without the following patch, storing links to Gnus Article buffers fails
on CVS Emacs, as they (at least in my setup -- IMAP) always contain a
"From " line, which can't be parsed as an RFC822 header.

Subject: [PATCH] Fixes for the Gnus integration
- `org-gnus-store-link': When the article buffer starts with "From ",
ignore the first line. This is necessary at least on Gnus v5.13,
as shipped with emacs23 (CVS 2009-06-18).

Could you elaborate a bit, i.e. provide such an example mail?

Looking at the patch, I get the impression, that it's a solution to a
problem you created on your own. ;-)
If the first line of a mail starts with "From ", I'd say it's broken.

`----
The space has the ASCII code 32, so IMO it's not allowed as header field
name.
Bye,

This is your mail as shown by Gnus after toggling the headers:

"From " lines are for example used in the mbox format[0], so I wasn't
too surprised to find it in my IMAP mails as well. However, you very
well might be right that this is a bug in the MDA (which stores the
mails, including the disputed first line, in a Maildir folder, which is
then served by via IMAP).

I'm aware of that; but I never said that the "From " line is supposed to
be a header field -- it preceeds the email headers.

I see.

Yep. But in general I'm pretty sure that your patch won't introduce
effects to "normal" mails, and since Gnus displays those "From " mails
without problem, the linking should do the same. So I'll apply it to my
local branch and alarm Carsten to pull the changes.

I just applied the patch in the version I got from Tassilo.
Thanks!
