*SBBS* has a bug, I just noticed the last two emails I have "quoted" it is
putting the incorrect initials ... VC should be ML... :-/

Anyway, would it be worth implementing a Kludge for flowed - when found 0d is
ignored and paragraphs get formatted by the reader? This is how JAMNNTPd works
- in my NNTP server code I dropped flowed since it was really messing up
BBS_ADS and a couple other echos. I thinking adding ^aFORMAT: flowed^m would
help in the cases that people can handle >80 columns.

That would make ^aCOLS: 80^m make a little more sence ;)
