Since the abuse folks have to verify that the analysis is valid, why even include the analysis? Personally, when dealing with complaints, I tend to ignore all "analysis" and other text except the forwarded message itself unless I'm at a loss as to figure out why it was sent to my abuse department. I've spoken to a number of other abuse leads who feel the same way. -- J.D. Falk <[email protected]> "Nathan says hi." Special Agent In Charge (Abuse Issues) Critical Path, Inc.
