I posted the following message several days ago and it returned with several fields changed. Someone on its travels must have munged the message-id, among other things. --- returned article --- Path: paris.ics.uci.edu!venera.isi.edu!aero!sm.unisys.com!cs.utexas.edu!tut.cis\ .ohio-state.edu!osu-cis!att!pacbell!ames!oliveb!ames!claris!apple!bionet!agate!\ labrea!decwrl!hplabs!hp-sdd!ucsdhub!ucsd!oriondcf.uci.edu!paris.icsduci.edu!nag\ el From: nagel@paris.icsduci.edu (Mark Nagel) Newsgroups: rec.arts.tv.soaps Subject: DOOL: Stefano is ALIVE!!!!!

Now we're gonna have some fun! Friday's ending had to have been the best I've seen in a very long time. -Mark "danot -0 da DAH da da da DAH... --- end returned article --- It appears that the Path and Message-ID fields (and others as well as the body) of this article were altered to change a '.' character to a 'd' somewhere on the path it traveled. Since paris transmits to orion and venera immediately, it should never have come back to orion or even ucsd. I checked the stored article at venera, and it is OK there. From a perfunctory examination, it appears that the site oliveb did this, since it goes from ames to oliveb and then back to ames again. Can anyone suggest why this might have happened? Should I contact the newsadmin at oliveb or am I wrong in my conclusions? Thanks in advance.
