Well Ken, we did discuss this a long time ago.  I seem to recall that
someone had said that they were gonna redo the scan code as it was full
of DEC-era optimizations.  The changes to show would seem to be pretty
easy.  Super busy these days but if anyone else felt like working on
it with me I'd think about it.  To me it's the flip side of the attachment
code that I wrote 25? years ago; I made it much easier to send attachments
but the receiving end was just too hard with the code base at the time.
