suck-postfilter

suck-postfilter is a drop-in replacement for /usr/lib/suck/put-news, part of the Debian suck package. put-news can't handle multi-line headers like Injection-Info:.

Save to /usr/lib/suck/ (or anywhere else) and add the new postfilter to /etc/suck/get-news.conf:

postfilter: /usr/lib/suck/suck-postfilter.pl
