Okay, I've decided to spare everybody the rotation hassle, so I removed most of the nonessential headers, tossing them into a separate file instead. Now, people on mailing lists don't have to download all my headers. (Off mailing lists, of course, my mail remains complete (headers, signature, and all), except by special request. The only thing I'm not prepared to omit for anybody is my GPG signature, for reasons you're all familiar with.) I left the cool ones that take advantage of Outlook features in, since I'd hate to miss the opportunity to annoy any stray Outlook user who happens to bump into our list. Maybe I'll remove them for the mutt-dev list, since people there are extremely unlikely to be using Outlook ... I dunno. . . /me imagines there's much rejoicing, now that cell phones everywhere can suddenly download more than one message without running out of memory ;-P - Dave -- Uncle Cosmo, why do they call this a word processor?
