...but isn't the body sometimes smaller than the room in the scan listing??
Certainly is for me, but I have cron and at send me reminders a lot.  Anyway...

  $ compute 3266/145141*100
  2.2500
  $ compute 9/602*100
  1.4900

...so perhaps I'd argue it's more than an insignificant nuisance.

I just removed the Ken's X-Face: header and problem disappeared.  Ditto w/
removing my X-Envelope-From: injected by procmail.  I don't think any more
analysis from me would be useful.  Free samples available by request!
