I got the missing messages with the fictionary-get command and found out why
my procmail script discarded them: they are written in HTML and are not
multipart. Messages like that are almost all spam; the only exception I've
had in the past has been messages from a certain dating site.
I accept multipart text/plain and text/html messages but set my mail client to
show only the text/plain part for security reasons. When I get a mail in
text/html only, it shows the HTML code, which is messy, but I'd rather see
the code than run the risk of running a virus embedded in it. I run Linux,
which doesn't get viruses, but someone might write a Java virus that does
affect Linux and send it via email.
