Thanks a lot. You probably didn't get much sleep, but now I can sleep
better :). Would have preferred that the message were not added. Not
sure that it would be needed if '?' were switched to '%', so that a
legitimate typo would be recognized. Now that the cat is out of the bag,
my fix: "http://www.irm.nara.kindai.ac.jp/lynxdev/hacks/xxunescape.gz".
If you're interested in reversing the default for the interactive From:
header insertion for Unix, I did a patch for userdefs.h; appended below.
