Sujet: [exim] Fixing the exim queue after editing spool files
Have you ever had to make a bulk change to a bunch of header spool files to
remedy, say, messages sent by a buggy mail client?

If you have, you'll have learded, like I did the hard way, that if you edit
spool files, you have to update the character count at the start of each
header entry in the header spool file. I couldn't find an easy way to do
this, so I'm sharing my solution with you in case someone has run into the
same trouble I did.

To automatically repair the count after a bulk change, run your header spool
files through this sed script. It works with header lines up to 999
characters long.

Enjoy!
