I was asking how you arrived at the conclusion that Outlook Express
was one of the apps that "did the wrong thing". As you can tell from
the headers, I'm using OE. Notice that I also modified the subject
to include a couple more colons, which, as you can see, were posted
correctly. So... how was it that you concluded that OE "did the
wrong thing"?


The OE bug is generated by the first person using OE
to reply to a post that begins with "OT:" (or any other
combination of letters other than "".

Once you have "" in the subject line, OE ignores the
rest of the line.

Ah. I see. Thanks for the clarification, Martin.
