In order to accommodate those who have difficulty adding arbitrary real headers to messages, the Approved: header can be added as a pseudo-header as the first non-blank line of the first text/plain part of the message. If it is found there, it is also looked for in and removed from other text/* parts of the message. Some caveats are: If a pseudo-header is not in the first text/plain part (e.g. the message is html only), it won't be found or removed, but presumably there was a need for the message to be pre-approved, so it won't go to the list. The removal of the pseudo-header from html and or subsequent parts is a best effort, not a guarantee. It is possible that the header will be sufficiently garbled with additional html tags or entities or other rich text artifacts, that it won't be found. The moral is if at all possible, use a real header. If you have to use a pseudo header, post a text/plain only message or remove non-text plain parts with content filtering. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
