mail-to-news error (fwd)

This is what was in my mailbox... Just so you know, the anonymous remailer here strips out your ENTIRE header. It will process commands in the header, but the original message's subject won't get passed on. Anything in the pasted "::" header block will get tacked onto the outgoing header unless it is a command to the remailer. So put a "Subject:" line in the pasted header block and it will get through the news gateway barring any other difficulties. Chael Hall Forwarded message:
