FWIW, I was postmaster/listmaster/more at a Zmailer site for many years and have sent umpty million colon-tab messages. It attracted more than its fair share of problems, and I wouldn't recommend doing it. But I agree: There is longstanding minority usage of colon-tab and so it should not be disallowed now. Gateways just need to cope as they always have. Arnt
