Hi,

I have some issues with a pipe-trough filter in kmail: I have created a small perl \
script and defined a filter that uses this script via pipe through. The documentation \
says, that the entire email will be passed via STDIN to the script. 

But: if the filter is invoked automatically during the download of mails from my pop3 \
account (I am only using pop3) STDIN is empty!

The script itself does what it should, if e. g. invoked via "KmailFilter.pl < \
mail.mbox", with an email saved somewhere on the disk. It also works fine, when \
invoked manually for a specific mail in any of my local mail folders. 

Any ideas how to get the email linked to the script when the emails are going to be \
downloaded?


I also tried modifying the filter definition and passing parameters to the script: \
One may pass the name of a file which should contain the email, but this file also is \
empty.


Here are some facts:

Kmail version 4.14.9 coming with openSUSE 13.2.

The perl script adds a "date"-header to the email, should it be missing. It takes the \
date out of some other header e. g. the "received"-header.


Any help appreciated,
cheers Jan
