Um, what's going on here? I did *not* write this message which is
claiming to be from me. It is a copy of the message Sam Roberts sent
a couple days ago, which included in the body some unquoted headers
from my message. I believe the relevant header from this copy is:
Received: (from cyrus@localhost)

Whatever happened, please don't let it happen again.
Thanks,
Brian
