Okay, I'll bite. How long does RFC 822 say your
Subject: line can (or can't) be?

<smirk, scowl>

What is this software that creates a SECOND
Subject: line for a single message? <!>

And, while we're at it, how does RFC 822 feel
about having two or more Subject: lines on one
message? That sounds like something RFC 822
should be clear about...
