Yeah, indeed I tried that earlier on.  Tor users who attempt to
download the mbox get:

  "425 Security: Bad IP connecting."

I was surprised that the threading is correct when the subject line
matches, and wondered if the mailing list tool is deriving the
references, or if a moderator was doing some manual labor.

Ah, I didn't know the HTML source had it.  I'm trying that for this
message.  Hopefully the mixmaster network doesn't strip it.  I've
changed the subject to see how it goes.
