Wow... that's the first time I've seen a MESSAGE in a header (Content-Transfer-Encoding??). I've seen people muck with the 'from' headers, but nothing like this. It looks like it's either unintentional (broken mailer?), or ...maybe just a way to get around spam filters (though not a very effective one)? I wish Thunderbird let me pick which headers to display. Guess sometime I'll have to find the motivation to build my own copy (even if maintaining a patch is a total PITA). -- Matthew Only Joe suffers from schizophrenia. The rest of us enjoy it.
