No a guru myself Dave, but as nobody else has followed-up yet, I would
think it may well be a Maildot feature. If you like you can Forward a
non-private copy to me and I'll tell you how Thor deals with it.

Let me here first though, and I'll lower the spam shields.  :)

                  All the best,
