Eeek!  I wrote that before I changed my name to Liam!  :-)  (1984, I think)

Note that mailers will convert "From_" lines to ">From" lines.

You should do one of the following
    sed 's/^From '/###From /' folder | Mail remoteuser
or, better, use shar.  Some mailer links won't like files over 64K, and
I suspect that others will die on 32767 bytes.
But this is getting a little far away from alt.sys.sun now...
