 Yeah, but I should atleast have said a thing or two about why your recipe
didn't work. Bad me, gotta stop posting things when I'm in a bad mood. =)

Nothing I've never been guilty of.  No biggie.  I was a little
frustrated at the whole thing anyway, and the occasional kick in the
pants never hurt anyone :)

 You did a great job figuring out how to fix that problem of yours, though.

Thanks :)

 You're in for a surprise the next time you get an e-mail from someone using a
mailer from Microsoft... The number of comments in those e-mails is just plain
scary.

I know.  I'm just plain sick of Microsoft mailers, so I'm going to
just have to add to my whitelist when the important false positives
come thru.

 BTW, you don't really need all those formail-flags.

Actually I think I do.  I've tried a couple other things, and they
always tend to hose something obscure.  My server is Cyrus imapd, and
without those flags, formail tends to change the mailer format.
