I've noticed that on several Mailman lists I'm running, subject lines sometimes get chopped after commas or semicolons. This doesn't always happen, though. It's not just a matter of things being chopped after the 78-or-so chars, either. Sometimes, it's after a single word.
Below are examples from a list I run on ethanol issues. The first batch are examples with commas that came through just fine. Below it are examples where the subject lines got chopped/wrapped prematurely. This always happens at commas or semicolons. I'm running Mailman version "2.1.9.cp2" (control panel 2?). Any guidance on how to stop this inappropriate subject line wrapping would be much appreciated. Mike ----- *** THESE CAME THROUGH FINE *** Subject: [Ethanol] Ethanol plant question,Palestine Il??
