Unfortunately, *that* explains a lot.  I have the OP killfiled for address 
munging and was not aware of that.

(This was also due to your rather uncommon practice of not including the 
name in the attribution line at all, which I would advise against.  Postings 
are written by *people*, not e-mail addresses.  An e-mail address signifies 
almost nothing; in the From header field value, it may even specify a 
mailbox that is heavy spam-filtered and seldom read, not suitable for 
contacting the author.  And please skip the attribution novel while you are 
at it; it does not make sense, and it makes discussions a lot harder to 
read, to duplicate non-essential header information there.

Still, IMHO all examples should be written according to what one considers 
best common practice.  At least they can serve as a recommendation to 
others.  Bad examples to fix original code are almost as bad as bad original 
code.  A Usenet posting is written once, but then is distributed, and 
archived; thus it is still found much later, and read many times in total, 
not only by the OP.
