Re: weird email

Hi Yuan!

That's right. It seems like you got a weird message to your YahooMail 
account, message that doesn't contain any From: To: Date: header. 
YoSucker checks whether the message it fetches contains at least one of 
those headers to prevent a message loss in case of a connection error, 
malfunction, etc. So your message triggers this YoSucker protection 
mechanism, but it doesn't seem, as you said, to be its fault. So just find 
the right message and delete it using the web-interface. It is probably 
some form of spam.

Hope this helps! Have fun!
