Here is the log entry for a message I tried to move from 'bad' to 'msg' queue.

Feb 10 16:45:08 mlist2.is.ed.ac.uk sympa[18043]: [ID 702911 local1.notice]
main::DoFile() Processing
/address@concealed ;
sender: Madeleine Frances Walder <address@concealed>
Feb 10 16:45:08 mlist2.is.ed.ac.uk sympa[18043]: [ID 702911 local1.notice]
Moving bad file address@concealed to bad/

It doesn't really explain why the message is considered bad.

Regards
Gordon
