Our local (and rather small) telephone directory reveals a Sexauer and
several Sexton names.  Oops, I missed the Sextro.  Those are likely to show
up in $message_headers and $message_bodies from time to time.  Readily
available names, so I'm not revealing anything (and of course a sexton is
also a sort of church caretaker/gardener/gravedigger).

About a year and a half ago, I received a message from a fellow board of
directors (of a local club) member, and replied.  The reply was filtered by
her mail client because of the subject (which of course she had invented).
When asked why I hadn't replied, I replied again, changing the subject and
the message arrived.

Here be dragons.
