Please could you try and fix it. > Thanks. Last time I checked, that's a news header (the switch-protocol aspect is part of why "Mail" is prefixed). I don't exactly know why the IETF has been unable to standardize this for mail, but there you have it. Nothing wrong with asking for the feature of course (it's a good one), but I would suggest retracting the words "broken" and "fix", and saying "*pretty* please."
