If you still have a copy, you may do with it what you want, including posting it. As for "how to break from" in-band signalling, I support the idea of using a unique (to a particular message) character sequence, which is specified in a header field. I reject (on principle) any scheme which requires modifying the text of a message. I would prefer a scheme in which the message breaks were listed in the header (say, by line number). Something like: Break-On: 1, 53, 105, 259, 711, 911 However, that seems to be politically incorrect... Keep on fighting the good fight. -Ken Sloan === End message text ===
