It seems that Mush treats line > continuation as an implicit comma - therefore forces the sender > name to be a list of senders. Almost correct. Mush treats multiple headers that are similar as one header and implicitly adds a comma: To: dheller@cory.berkeley.edu To: argv@sun.com when replied to, this would generate: To: dheller@cory.berkeley.edu, argv@sun.com The situation you see above is due to some other problem, I'm sure. Not 100% sure, but pretty sure :-) I'm not sure which version you're using, but my current version doesn't have that problem. for those interested, the "current" version I'm talking about is the current version of mushview not yet available. It will be when bart comes back from vacation (sometime this week, I suppose). Dan Heller
