   Hello Mark,   
      
   KR> It is common practice that mailcontent including the original origin   
   KR> line is transported unmodified within Fidonet as long as i can   
   KR> remember.   
      
   ml> it is transported unmodified...   
      
   HD> No it is transported and changed, at the local machine between the   
   HD> software packages.   
      
   ml> no... it is not ""transported""... it sits in a message base with the   
   ml> golded origin line on it and the tosser scans it out and adds another one   
   ml> instead of using intelligence and detecting there is one already in   
   place...   
      
   Off course it was not intelligent.   
   Scanning it out and placing it in a pkt _IS_ transportation, nothing less.   
   The original message sits unchangand in the local database,   
   but the tranported one to the *.pkt file was changed illegally.   
   That is what I mean transportation on the local machine,   
   even before it was sended out tot the rest ot the network.   
   Copying from one file tot another even in the same directory is   
   transportation!   
   Even moving, i.e. deleting original after copying, is transportation.   
      
   ml> perhaps you should actually install the software in question and see how   
   ml> it really operates instead of making wild assumptions like so many   
   ml> others...   
      
   That was not a wild assumption, you know very well.   
   Installing software is not necessarry when you use your imagination.   
   Besides that, I donot have the resources to spend so much time for so much   
   sillynes. No thanks, I have more important things to do.   
   Kai was right and still is, period.   
      
   Henri.
