Bob, at 13:00 on Jun 20 1996, you wrote to Bill Grimsley...

Frank sent a message where he typed "SEEN-BY" all over BL> the place without the quote marks, or rather, I assumed he did because BL> whole lines were missing in the message. Obviously, there has to be BL> protection fpor "SEEN-BY" when processing mail, and I thought it was BL> Paul doing it, but he has since denied it. I dunno... but it sure made BL> it hard to read the message. Dunno, I strip all SEEN-BYs here whilst the measages are being tossed, but aren't they normally preceded by a '01 smiling face, which is being used as a control character? I really have no idea, and quite frankly, nor do I really care. I suppose that having a look at the raw messages file would give me the definitive answer, but Unlike Paul, I do actually have a life beyond FTS-nn.
