Description Egbert Eich 2005-10-05 10:34:48 UTC
This may be a problem of the perl module used:
grepmail produces the following error messages numerous times:
Use of uninitialized value in numeric ne (!=) at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.7/Mail/Mbox/MessageParser/Cache.pm line 125.
Use of uninitialized value in numeric lt (<) at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.7/Mail/Mbox/MessageParser/Cache.pm line 141.
Use of uninitialized value in subtraction (-) at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.7/Mail/Mbox/MessageParser/Cache.pm line 126.
Downgrading perl (and its modules) to 5.8.6 seems to fix this problem.

Actually I found out that this problems doesn't appear on a new installation.
The system where this happend was an upgreade from 9.2.

I tried to update from 10.0 to 10.1 and this problem did not appear. As we are not going to release a fix for 10.0 anyway, I am closing this bug.
