Has there been a change recently that is causing news-to-mail gated messages to include all of the news headers in the *body* of the mail message? (I hadn't updated my CVS snapshot for a couple of weeks... and now seem to be getting this behavior.)

Sigh. It could have been change 1.35 in Message.py. That tried to fix a different problem, but maybe this is causing the bug you noticed. Is it new->mail or mail->news or both directions?

Commenting out the: #if string.count(lines[0], ':'): # lines.insert(0, '\n') in Message.py/OutgoingMessage appears to fix the news-> mail problem, but I don't know what the "text with a colon on the first line" problem was that you were trying to fix. (Boy that array of lines sure gets split and joined a lot. :-)

Yeah, that's what I figured. I'll work out a better fix for the problem (which is at it's core related to the -- IMO -- bogus interface for rfc822.Message).
