Unit, Westfield College, London Lines: 26 < force of habit ... > I'm afraid that I rather resent inuxc!mcferrin's allegation that I rigged the date on that article !! :-) We do occasionally get screwed up dates here too - there was a bug at ukc a while back which was doing this, though I'm not sure if it's ukc doing it again. Anyone there care to comment ? Oh yes - thanx to all the folks who replied to my query. The upshot of this is that if you have vnews, use `w' to save the article without headers, otherwise use one of the hacks published (there were a few sent to me as well, so if you want them, let me know). This does not solve the problem of signature lines though - let's see a standard for shar file starts and ends! (BTW - the method which detects `From' lines is not suitable here, since ukc and some other news gateways insert `From' lines in strange places) mcvax "Hello shoes!
