^^^^^^^
Unfortunately, *that* explains a lot. I have the OP killfiled for address
munging and was not aware of that.

(This was also due to your rather uncommon practice of not including the
name in the attribution line at all, which I would advise against. Postings
are written by *people*, not e-mail addresses. An e-mail address signifies
almost nothing; in the From header field value, it may even specify a
mailbox that is heavy spam-filtered and seldom read, not suitable for
contacting the author. And please skip the attribution novel while you are
at it; it does not make sense, and it makes discussions a lot harder to
read, to duplicate non-essential header information there.

Still, IMHO all examples should be written according to what one considers
best common practice. At least they can serve as a recommendation to
others. Bad examples to fix original code are almost as bad as bad original
code. A Usenet posting is written once, but then is distributed, and
archived; thus it is still found much later, and read many times in total,
not only by the OP.
