Ok, it's implemented. The script will strip anything that appears before
a line that begins like:
>>>>>[
***** INTERNAL
***** PRIVATE
***** NOT-TO
Did I miss any of them?
If it doesn't find a suitable header anywhere in the message, it will
NOT pass the message on to the list, but will instead bounce it back to
the sender, telling them they have an error in their formatting. James
and I will also get a copy of all of the bounced messages so that we
should be able to catch things that bounce but should have passed through.
PLEASE let me know if you notice any problems with your posts making it
through to the list, since this filter is very experimental at the moment.
Thanks,
-Mark
