OK, I was speculating in the absence of knowledge. (Always a bad idea.) Time for me to put a stop to that and whip up something to let spamassassin / spamd do the size restriction stuff itself, on the combined size of headers, text/plain and message/* parts only. Coming up (probably not before tomorrow; the codebase has changed a lot since I looked at it last). -- `The copyright file is for everyone. That we make it available in plain-text, uncompressed form rather than in spinning, throbbing OpenGL-rendered 3D text over a thumping dance music soundtrack is a feature, not a bug.' --- Branden Robinson
