I do know that changing it to 'from - to'       seems to display on two newsreaders here vs 'from -> to'.              Before I was seeing it get cut off like so:              i.e.              Bj”rn Felten ->       or       Matt Bedynek ->              Now it displays fine.              ---        * Origin: The Byte Museum - news: news.bytemuseum.org (1:19/10)    |
