Yes, I have 5 X-Headers for reasons NOT to use Microsoft products or the extremes MS wil go to to push their products. And you are right, most MUAs don't even display them. My MUA, mutt, doesn't even display them ala: # Weed ALL mail headers, then put back the ones we want to see ignore * unignore from date subject to cc unignore organization organisation x-mailer: x-newsreader: x-mailing-list: unignore posted-to: In my .muttrc, BUT many mailing lists I post to actually index the X-Headers, so It's a good way for google to pick them up. :-) Call them my subversive advertisments. -- Minneapolis St. Paul Twin Cities MN | Phone : (952)943-8700 http://www.mn-linux.org Minnesota Linux | Fax : (952)943-8500 Key fingerprint = 6C E9 51 4F D5 3E 4C 66 62 A9 10 E5 35 85 39 D9
