Hi Earl,
I want to be able to easily correct erroneous subject-lines provided by
users. I have no way of knowing in advance what those corrections might have
to be. And the archival of our messages is done immediately the message is
received.
Does anyone have a perl script for this purpose or should I roll my own?
Thanks for your help,
