Bah, and even as a MS MVP you forgot to replace the "OT:" that OE
idiotically snips. For several years now, OE has thought that
anything followed by a colon must be the same thing as "Re:"... why
can't they fix that? I'd like to find the programmer who put that in
and slap him silly.

It wreaks havoc in newsgroups that have rules about tagging post
subjects with different identifiers.
