Summary: Can anyone decipher this header?? Message-ID: <2478@polari.UUCP> Date: 8 Sep 90 10:38:56 GMT Reply-To: tronix@polari.WA.COM (David Daniel) Distribution: na Organization: Seattle Online Public Unix (206) 328-4944 Lines: 91 After reading the various articles discussing sending mail to CompuServe (tm) I decided to test the mailer at this site. I sent the following test message to: postmaster@compuserve.com This site is running Mail User's Shell (mush) 6.5.6 6/89. I have the autoroute feature set in my .mushrc. My question is: Why on Earth is this header so loooong? I can't quite make out the process by which it got to Compuserve and then back to me. Any mail gurus care to answer?
