Of note is that Christian's stdout.txt file is of size 8192.  This
indicates that bogofilter didn't process the complete message
(which is approx 350k).  The question becomes is this a bogofilter
issue or an issue in passing the message to bogofilter?

I've created a maildroprc file that runs a script that saves
stdin, stdout, and stderr.  Here they are:

#### BEGIN /etc/maildroprc ####
# Global maildrop filter file

#DEFAULT="$HOME/.maildir/"

xfilter "/tmp/bogofilter.sh -u -e -p -vvv" 
#### END /etc/maildroprc ####

#### BEGIN bogofilter.sh ####
tee /tmp/stdin.out bogofilter $* -x amlt 2> /tmp/stderr.out | tee \
/tmp/stdout.out 
#### END bogofilter.sh ####

Then I compared maildropbogo/stderr.txt (Christian's) with stderr.out
(mine).  As mail clients tend to wrap lines, I've attached an edited
part of the diff.  Here are my observations:

The textblock.c lines have different addresses due to MacOS and Linux
differences -- not a problem.  Some of these lines have been snipped
(because there are lots of them).

Then at after "@@ -1079,32 +1078,39 @@" the diff becomes interesting.
Function yyinput (part of the lexer) reports 327915 bytes received by
Linux but only 8192 bytes received by MacOS.  My diagnosis is that
MacOS has a problem.

Christian, as a test for you, modify maildroprc to use bogofilter.sh
and see if stdin.out is big (350k) or small (8k).

I'm looking forward to hearing what happens!

Regards,

David
