text/plain (28 lines)
When many of our users send commands to the LISTSERV server, their commands
are being rejected with this message:

* Your message is being returned to you unprocessed because no command was
* found in the message body. LISTSERV  expects commands in the body of the
* message, rather than in the message  subject, because some users have no
* control over the contents of the "Subject:" field on outgoing messages.

This is because of the new way 1.8e interprets MIME messages (the last line
of the body of the text portion is not read anymore). I want to change this
to read something like:

* Your message is being returned to you unprocessed because no command was
* found in the message body. LISTSERV  expects commands in the body of the
* message followed by a carriage return (you must hit "enter" at the end of
the line),
* rather than in one line or in the message subject, because some users have no
* control over the contents of the "Subject:" field on outgoing messages.

Any way to do this?
