Sh*t, bum, and poo.   (My way of saying "f*ck it". 

I didn't realise that the _ was being stripped at any time.
The inability to enter the "{at}" is a bug.  QWKRR will ignore this
character and any that follow when *reading* messages. I did this
because some doors will add this, plus the fido address to the name
field of messages posted on such systems, and this plays havok with the
registration routins, AND the twit lists.

It is *not* supposed to do this when replying.  It is a bug. :-(

Unfortunately QWKRR V4.30 has just gone out the door.
I wish I knew this last week. :-(


Oh well.   That's liff.

Cheers
Rod
