Developers of Sympa

[Olivier Salaun <address@concealed>]

Hi,

We use MhOnArc and Marc::Search within Sympa mailing lists manager.

We recently had severe crashes on Sympa's web front-end during archives
search
process. Eventually we found out that MarcSeach was looping forever
while
searching the message body : it could not find the trailing
<!--X-MsgBody-End-->.

Here is a patch that avoids this problem :
