Chuck: I'd like to be able to say that I noticed the 
spelling error but intentionally left it alone. In fact, 
I missed it. But, alas, there _is_ a valid reason for 
not correcting a spelling error in the subject field of 
a message to which you're replying. If you change 
_anything_ in the message title, software that sorts on 
threads will not consider your reply to be part of the 
original thread. By correcting a spelling error, you, 
umm, break the thread.

Now if you want to see some _really_ bizarre message 
titles, let's have the server run a spell chack on the 
titles and automatically "correct" the errors. I have a 
feeling the message titles would soon provide the 
biggest laughs on the list. Garrett will probably chime 
in that that would happen only if he used a Microsoft 
spell checker, which he would never do. But I don't know 
whether Unix-based spell checkers are really better.

I'd better stop now before Garrett raps my knuckles for 
an off-topic post.--Dan
