The phrase "to fully-preserve" is wrong for two reasons. The first is one
does not use a hyphen for a verb plus an object; the hyphen is used for
compound modifiers, compound nouns, etc. The second is that there is a
split infinitive--definitely a grammatical faux pas. A better way to

Hi Richard,
Thanks for your sage advice. It makes sense to me.
By the way, please limit you line length to less than 80 charaacters

Well folks.
We already knew that SMTP was 'dead' at freewwweb.
Now it seems that the entire mail server has 'died'.
8 days ago, I sent 2 test messages to my own address at freewwweb.
They both came back today undelivered.

Eko,
You refer to the BCC being in "message body"; it isn't. It is, and
always has been, in the headers. And these days you normally need very

There is something that we sometimes have a very hard time coming to
grips with.
Just because something can be abused, that doesn't mean we have to
come up with some sort of fix to keep it from happening.
To expect Arachne to "filter" our out-going mail and stop any
duplications is not only
