- Imagine if the From: line at Massey went a step further and replaced
- kilroy@acme.gen.nz with news@massey.ac.nz who you not be concerned as
- this would not be within the confines of RFC822, same as does currently
- apply to the Nats quote.
-
- Do not nit pick for the sake of it Craig. Remember how you ridgidly
- stick to the RFC's when it comes to Mr Bruce Becker. If you showed
- the same kind of leighway as you do here to Nat you would not have
- the problems with Mr Becker and all your forged rmgroups.
-
- Food for thought.
