From my point of view, I could implement it, but it would be roughly as much work as for the Address-Map list. I'm jittery about two things, though. 1: What effect do really long display-parts, say 100 characters, have on crapware? 2: What happens when crapware simply converts to 8-bit and sends that untagged, without knowing the New Scheme? Address-Map seems better, since for that method, that the entire header field may go away, and that's it. As long as the field is present, it works, if it has been stripped e.g. by some mailing-list software, things degrade in a comprehensible manner. --Arnt
