thanks for noting this, my distribution script is run by fingers and has apparently been affected by a high work volume, but BTW, as far as I have noticed this should have affected only about 3 of the last 6 or 7 messages? regards, Bob On Thu, 20 Dec 2001, Peter Selinger wrote:
Hi,
the last few days' worth of categories mailings have all arrived with the headers as follows:

(body of the message) ----------------------------------------------------------------------
In particular, note the blank line within the headers, which prevents the correct sender or subject to be displayed. The sender shows up as "cat-dist@mta.ca" instead of "icalp2002@lcc.uma.es", and the subject is empty.
Likely your distribution script is broken.
