I think the In-Reply-To: and References: are two different critters. The In-Reply-to: is legit, but the References: seems to, as Bill noted, refer to our resubscribe date. I haven't a clue what or why that might be worth including in a reply-to-list/all. Boggles my getting tinier mind. Maybe I should up the B1 in my weekly pill-tainer? :) Cheers, Gene Heskett. -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
