Excellent point, and the answer is no. It helps with:

but I can just throw the Message-ID in there as well. Confuse them a 
bit ;)

Threading visualised would just make it visually more appealing and 
clearer. But it is certainly not required, and heck: most people in 
the Windows world don't even understand what it is. :rofl:

But damn you for mentioning formail. You know I'll now hack together 
a one-liner trial-and-error-style, rather than just to sit down and 
do it in Python, which might take longer, but will be infinitely 
better in the long run.

Thanks,

(on the statement print "42 monkeys"+"1 snake") btw,
both perl and python get this wrong.
perl gives 43 and python gives "42 monkeys1 snake",
when the answer is clearly "41 monkeys and 1 fat snake".
