Our basic problem here is that if we have a config file that does not 
set a filter, it automatically uses the filter lpf.

Note that filters can mutilate documents by assuming they are UNIX ASCII 
files and putting carriage returns in them.

I suggest that it be changed so that when no filter is specified, none is 
used.

Thank you,

New bug report received and forwarded.

Your message didn't have a Package: line at the start (in the pseudo-header following the real mail header), or didn't have a psuedo-header at all.

This makes it much harder for us to categorise and deal with your problem report; please ensure that you say which package(s) and version(s) the problem is with next time. Some time in the future the problem reports system may start rejecting such messages.
