Yeah, thanks Alex. I was under a misconception as to what Paul wanted.
*I* thought he was testing my suggested down-the-road correction of an
apparent OLX bug with forwarded messages by fixing QWK2PKT so I sent him
a forwarded message.

What he actually wanted tested was messages with origin lines in.
Apparently that now works fine.

The more I think about the original "bug" the more I'm not convinced. I
now *think* it's probably related to most 'C' programmer's obsession
with null-terminated strings, and probably isn't a violation of
FTS-3.14159e6 or whatever. But it's not an important problem to me, so
no way am I going to go through those standards to try and prove it.

Regards, FIM.
