But not realy since in the logfile the patch will be cuted to ~70 chars...

The original Log was:

----8<------------------------------------------------------------------
 Subject: Re: Procmail
  Folder: .ML_mail.mutt-users@mutt_org/new/1192149195.19419_0.tp570.pr     4006
----8<------------------------------------------------------------------

Using a full path would be:

----8<------------------------------------------------------------------
 Subject: Re: Procmail
  Folder: /home/michelle.konzack/Maildir/.ML_mail.mutt-users@mutt_org/     4006
----8<------------------------------------------------------------------

but since some of my Maildir are longer, your logfile will be worthless
for analyzing.
