Like I said in a previous message, this problem doesn't exist at this
particular node but I am aware of at least one tosser, actually more of a
gateway but does toss, where this is a problem and badly formed MSGID's
will not make it beyond the bit bucket, or so I've been told.  If that is
true then only one well situated hub using this tosser will result in
messages being filtered out of the mix.  If none of us, or even a few of
us, never see these messages then how would one know?

I see no reason for the extra fields in the pointed out MSGID.  Do you?

Life is good,
Maurice
