I'm trying to put together a "delivery" program to action the
~spool/rqueue/.txt+wrk files and would appreciate any info on
what I might expect to find in the .wrk set.

Such experimentation as I've done here produces wrk files with
only two lines - a From: and a To: - this regardless of the 
number of addressees or Cc:s in the original mail.  It appears
that ka9q produces multiple copies of the mail message (each
with its own wrk/txt file) for each recipient.

My initial stab at the code loops for multiple To: lines in the 
wrk file, but to date this has not been exercised :-(.  Is it
reasonable to expect recipients on another host in 'queue' mode
or can that only happen if ~alias is so set up (for eg. mailing
list processing)?

If anyone in the know could post (either here or email me) a 
'worst case' example .wrk file, I'd be very grateful.

Or maybe not...
