Just a small reminder that the contents of the .wrk file and the
headers in the .txt file need not be related !

If you are not careful you may end up being embarrassed by doing this.

The .wrk is equivelent to the envelope, the .txt the content. The
addresses on the envelope need not be the same as in the content.

Blind copies are an example of using this idea.
