Hahaha... Honorable... f*ck. Yer right, Oddly, I have some flagged as
JAM-FTSKLUDGE in a couple echos. (Not sure which tosser flagged them with ^A...
skimming through FMail source, it's not FMail).

You system passed JAM-FTSKLUDGE:        COLS: 80 along the way... didn't see COLS
listed yet. Oh. Was in Fred's list though for this echo. On the subject of
COLS, one document I read says 72 chars, another 76 chars, as "right edge"...
is there a current ruling? (I run Dual 27" Wide Screens - so I could go to
something like 4000 in a readable font). ;-/

Hmmm, I guess I could make my editor put all of those Kludge lines in... then
we could make them a standard ;-) [3kb header for avg 2kb body]...
