I'm talking about mbox Sent folder, where some mailers append through imap server a copy of each message they send.
Sometimes, just three header lines got appended instead of the whole mail message, such as:
From xxxxxxxx@xxxxxx.xxxxxx.xxxxx.xx.xx Fri May 23 12:30:14 2008 X-UID: 2852 Status: RO
Are there other messages around it with the same From-line? Could this From-line be part of the previous message's body?
The empty mail header is part of a sent email that is missing in the Sent mbox file. The previous From header and the following one are correctly the ones of the previous and following sent emails. Here is the mbox lines starting fom the previous mail, and ending to the header of the following one (in this case it seems that the actual previous mail has been deleted as UID 2851 is missing, but I have other examples where no UID is missing):
