Is that what's actually implemented in Mozilla? A certain amount of
Mozilla's mail-news code descended from the Netscape 4.x code base, so
I wonder if this isn't still the 4.x algorithm rather than the
algorithm described on that page. It might be worthwhile to figure
that out, and if it is still the 4.x algorithm, file a bug in Bugzilla
to get it changed...
