Both were identical except for the Message-Id.   Both had a number of lines
of UUENCODE'd data appended after the END---- cut line.   If you remove
them, brik says the article is OK.   And so is the resulting zoo file.

There was a damaged cbase article though - check on your copies of cbase
part 11/12;   two were sent out, one OK and the other truncated.   Make
sure you use brik to check you extracted the good one.
I understand that sixhub had spool full problems.
