Yes, that=E2=80=99s what I=E2=80=99ve been trying to convey in
my earlier messages! :D  The list software used
there is different from mailman (used for GNU
lists).  It=E2=80=99s fairly strict with respect to its
accepted input(s), including the formatting and
in which part of the email they=E2=80=99re found in.
