PE> It doesn't fall down at all, it is simply the way it works.

RS> Thats what I SAID Paul, that you get that fucked
RS> result when that type of kludge is optional.

PE> The result is not fucked.  It is the
PE> best you can do, with an optional kludge.

RS> Thats what I SAID, and that is rather fucked, when a system part way
RS> thru the route a particular message takes can add the PATH for the first
RS> time and so its only got some of the systems that its passed thru listed.

PE> Whether you happen to think it is fucked or not, it is CERTAINLY
PE> not out of spec.  It is EXACTLY as the spec was designed.

Thats what I SAID dorko.

PE> There is no spec outlawing those ascii characters in user-text.

RS> Pathetic faking. Using that utterly bogus line of
RS> complete and utter bullshit you can have as many
RS> embedded origin lines and tear lines as you like.

PE> You basically can.

So your mindless obsessive raving about whats out of spec has
blown up in your face and covered you with black stuff. Again.

PE> Except they're not origin lines, they are simply user-text that
PE> starts with "---" etc.  They happen to look the same as tearlines
PE> + origin lines, but they aren't, as there is only one each of them.

You'll go blind if you dont watch out. Again.

RS> UTTER tripe, its breaks the specs because the specs
RS> say you can only have one origin line if you have one.

PE> The specs say that AN origin line is appended to the
PE> end of the message, they do NOT say you cannot have
PE> a line starting " * Origin" in your user-text.

Pity the same line of argument applys to other stuff
that you mindlessly rave about being out of spec.

PE> There IS something outlawing a nonconforming kludge line in user-text.

PE> FTS-1

RS> Smoke. Pity it doesnt outlaw that particular example.

PE> It does.

Bullshit it does.

PE> It is fairly obvious you have understood neither FTS-1, FTS-4 or FTS-9,
PE> given the comments you have put forward on all three of these specs.

Sure Paul, just like the FTS chair doesnt either. Mindless smoke.
