Perhaps you could blame the following header on "Friday"?
X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.0.1
Every so often I go through my "trash" folder and find that
someone has posted to a mutt list using Eudora. Fortunately I have
mutt put the trash folder at the end of the inbox search path.
Life is much easier when you don't need to read mail from
Windows users.
AOL users end up in /dev/null. I don't even bother.
