My acks aren't working either.  Not through ack menu pick or email reply's.
I'm getting the same "maint.pl: Use of uninitialized value..." error, but
the times don't correspond with my ack attempts.  I do see the acks getting
logged in the procmail.log file, but they're not ack'ing.  This was
happening before and after the 4.0.2 upgrade.
