Re: anybody see this spam?

As a rule, EVERY message I've ever receieved with an X-UIDL header
has been spam.  The presence of this header appears to cause odd
actions with the two big PC-Windows mailers (Eudora Pro and
Pegasus).  I've had my suspicions that it is planted in the header
for exactly that reason - is anyone interested in elaborating on
this optional header?


I am using Pegasus now (they took away my shell account) - but enough 
of this discussion list is relevant that I have not unsubscribed.

When I do get this headerline in Pegasus 32bit 2.5, attempting to 
reply, forward or save the message crashes Pegasus.  I've had to 
extract the message from the folder the hard way (debug) to complain 
to the SPAMmers ISP.  It did the same to Eudora and to tne mail 
portion of Netscape 3.0, though in different modules in different 
ways.
