I don't have those problems when compiling with MinGW for Win32,       either. It seems it depends on how each compiler implements the strcpy       function.              This may be a possible way to fix the corrupted From field in headers: in       nntpserv.c, instead of just removing this line:               strcpy(mimefrom,&mimefrom[6]);              Replace it by:               memmove(mimefrom,mimefrom+6,strlen(mimefrom)-5);              There could also be issues with the Subject field. The next line:               strcpy(mimesubj,&mimesubj[9]);              could be changed to:               memmove(mimesubj,mimesubj+9,strlen(mimesubj)-8);              As for the corruption in the body of messages posted with newsreaders that       support flowed text (like Thunderbird), I think it may be fixed by changing       this:               strcpy(line,&line[1]);              to this:               memmove(line,line+1,strlen(line));              These patches are for both JamNNTPd and SmapiNNTPd.              Carlos              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20180707        * Origin: cyberiada (2:341/234.1)       SEEN-BY: 15/0 90/1 103/705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/260 135/225       SEEN-BY: 153/757 7715 154/10 30 203/0 218/700 221/0 6 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 229/110 112 113 206 307 317 426 428 470 664 700 240/1120       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 266/512 280/464 5003 5555 282/1038 291/111 292/8125       SEEN-BY: 301/1 310/31 320/219 322/757 341/66 234 342/200 396/45 423/120       SEEN-BY: 460/58 256 1124 467/888 633/280 712/848 770/1 5020/400 5054/30       PATH: 341/234 280/464 460/58 229/426           |
