Occasionally, the addresses >the reply comes up with are horribly scrambled. Here is a sample message: I am growing less and less sympathetic to those who still insist on using ucb-Mail *and* complain about it. There are far too many "better" mailers out there that do things right that I feel that those who use Mail "get what they deserve." The world is full of different mailers that appeal to any kind of interface you like -- there is MH, gnuemacs, Elm and of course my personal favorite is Mush. If you say, "but I like the Mail interface best" then use Mush -- it can be made to look exactly like Mail, but doesn't have all the bugs :-) Dan Heller
