I do like to see the funny side of many things in my dotage...  :-)
Interesting...

On the particular OS I'm using ATM. 
The Mail/News reader app (Pluto 3.20) upfront shows:

Author: R.Wieser <address@is.invalid>
Subject: Filtering Eejits
Source: alt.comp.software.firefox

Even more interesting, now I've moved sideway at my office desk to my
Laptop/notebook, Win10, Thunderbird 140.12.1 upfront I see something
similar displayed.

And by looking a bit deeper, behind the scene header data, even you are
not using Thunderbird.

Newsreader: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2900.5512

So I'm not the only one here, using different News apps, depending upon
what computer I'm using at the time.

What fun... I'm a great believer of the old phrase: "Horses for courses."

Nb: I took great care to be sure I replied with the correct geezer this
time.   ;-)
