Is it really necessary to include the @i(entire) text of a previous msg to
reference it ?  Guy's last msg was a particularly egregious example, starting out
with :


    Date: Tue, 26 Nov 85 08:42 EST
    From: Bernard S. Greenberg <BSG@SCRC-STONY-BROOK.ARPA>

	Date: Mon, 25 Nov 85 14:08 PST
	From: Richard Lamson <rsl@RUSSIAN.SPA.Symbolics.COM>

	    Date: Fri, 22 Nov 85 20:41:51 EST
	    From: "George J. Carrette" <GJC@MIT-MC.ARPA>

and then repeating it a SECOND time.  Really folks,  its not like we're all reading
mail with a line editor.
