   Hi! mark,   
      
   On Wed, 13 Jun 12, you wrote to me:   
      
    >>> Partially successful, but message headers had mangled addresses.   
    >>> Golded acting hinky..   
      
    PQ>> The reply "To:" field was in fact blank!   
      
   That was eery but I had to fix it with GoldEd to put Ross's name in it.   
      
    ml> this is normal unless you have jamnntpd configured with   
    ml>   def_showto on   
      
   (It is set that way.)   
      
    ml> which makes the From: field on news look like   
    ml>   john smith -> fred astare   
      
   Yep.   
      
    ml> and a reply to that will cause jamnntpd to place a proper To: field   
    ml> when it imports the post back into the jambases...   
      
   Okay.  Check.   
      
    PQ>> This is a test message only. (The headers were in a mangled form in   
    PQ>> the T'bird browse window.) I'll see what it looks like in GoldEd now.   
      
    PQ>> The sender's names were truncated and concatenated with the   
    PQ>> recipients' names, in JamNNTPd.  GoldEd was still showing all   
    PQ>> messages okay.   
      
    ml> example??   
      
   See the JamNNTPd-prefixed happy-snaps for the browse screens & message   
   displays...

   I didn't display the messages with GoldEd though.  Each copy of JamNNTPd   
   displayed the message fine (except for the test system reporting an origin   
   time of one hour difference[shrug]).  It's just the JamNNTPd message list   
   browse screen in T'bird was ugly-looking.  Yerk!   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
