A few students here are trying to write a nice, pretty mail-user-agent
under a custom OS, talking both to BITNet and Internet-style addresses.

After severely taxing our creativity, we're making a request to the
Network:

Send us your tired, weak, confused or downright perverted mail headers...

Since sooner or later we're going to get a weird one, we'd appreciate it if
you could look through your back "strange-headers" file and send anything
particularly strange to me at the following addresses so we can code for it
now rather than debug for it later.

Thanks in advance for your strangeness donations!
