I have been using the standard hooks on supercite, and I noticed something
weird on include replies and forwards.  It is including part of the
header, which is might odd.  Here's an example message:

Return-Path:  <engb3cc@BUACCA.BU.EDU>
Reply-To: engb3cc@BUACCA.BU.EDU
To: jc@raven.bu.edu
From: engb3cc@BUACCA.BU.EDU (Jim Cameron)
Subject: None
Date: 10 Apr 1991  21:35:22
X-Mail-Agent: JCMAIL v2.0 11Nov90

hello there

And here is the include reply:

To: engb3cc@BUACCA.BU.EDU
In-reply-to: Jim Cameron's message of 10 Apr 1991  21:35:22 <9104110136.AA18666@BU.EDU>
Subject: None
FCC: ~/.outgoing-mail

 Jim> hello there


This happens with both RMAIL and VM.  According to RFC822 (I believe that 
is the correct number) all mailers which want to add fields should use the
"X-" notation as it was decided that it would maintain integrity and not
ever use that as part of any other field.  

Any ideas?
