I've mailed a couple of complaints to whatever!root but haven't gotten any response. Also, who's been eating long Path: lines? I've had pathalias (on the machine nextdoor) use weird routes on occasion that have confused Mail (mailx), so I try to use the Path: info as much as possible. WILL SITES THAT EAT LONG LINES AND LONG SUBJECTS CEASE AND DESIST FROM THIS BEHAVIOUR!
