The BlueWave packet format supports, by default, longer To:, From: and
Subject: lines than a run-of-the-mill QWK packet.  To me, that's the
most glaring difference.  

With PcBoard 15.x, it has longer To:, From: and Subject: lines but the
QWK mail reader has to support (and 99.9% do not) so there's the crux.

The BlueWave door working with PcBoard 15.x supports the longer
headers which is why I'm using it.  :-)
