I think I figured this out yesterday. It was a dot somewhere in the name of a recipient on To:/Cc: line that is NOT double-quoted. For this thread, brian's human-readable name "brian m. carlson" was double-quoted in the original I responded to and it also was double-quoted in my response. But there was another recipient with a dot after the middle initial, which was NOT double-quoted in the original. My response seems to have been eaten because that name was not double-quoted. I saw that happen yesterday in another thread with the same recipient, and resent with the only change to double-quote that name and it went through.
