Implementations should provide a follow-up command, which allows a
user to post a follow-up message. This command should generate a
"Subject" line which is the same as the original message, except
that if the original subject does not begin with "" or "", the
four characters "" are inserted before the subject. If there is
no "References" line on the original header, the "References" line
should contain the Message-ID of the original message (including the
angle brackets). If the original message does have a "References"
line, the follow-up message should have a "References" line
containing the text of the original "References" line, a blank, and
the Message-ID of the original message.


What does "should" mean?


What is this, pre-school?

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/should?s=t


Is like all the others that have "must" where
an item is mandatory and "should" isn't?


wiggle wiggle...

(BTW even the crap software you use manages all of this - its the
display side where it gets confused)

Don't bother to answer BTW.

FU set.


That worked well.


So *you* want to waste time continuing this debate.

FU set again


Lol, to a non existent group *again!*

(Incoming clue by 4: there is no group called dev.null, dev is not a
valid top level organisation)
