Hi,
I have to manage many parallel HTTP/HTTPS connections. My current
implementation starts up a number of threads (300-500). Each thread handles

I'm pulling my hair out over the German URL spam that leaked to P5P

envelope forging is a killer.
Maybe the absense of the user name is a clue?
E.g., "John Doe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" is okay, but

Umm, since removing it would also break programs that say "use Switch;",
Odd. I tend to find the reverse. Adding "use Switch;" to a program tends
to break it.

Ah, I hadn't grasped this issue. Yeah, perhaps Jos' idea of indexing
every revision on CPAN would work. It would probably be best to
