Civil Rights in the Digital Age

I've been trying to compile a list of possible orginations and companies

  Hrmph. Here's an example of weird dependencies on X11 foo -- it's
  obviously vmware's problem, though, and not Ubuntu's problem:

  http://communities.vmware.com/thread/109066

  It's a mystery -- why would the xorg-dev libs be necessary to
  install VMware Server 1.0.4 on Ubuntu 7.10 32-bit, but not on 
  Ubuntu 7.10 64-bit?

  Speaking of things that are obviously vmware's problem:

You must be a stupid engineer then, because politcs and technology have been attached at the hip since the
1st dynasty in Ancient Egypt.  I guess you missed that one."

Thanks Jeff.  Since the standard for mboxes is not etched in stone the question remained.
And I'm actually trying to break some code at the moment and see if I can make someone elses
software trip.

How about this, if you like the question better, how does mutt recoknise seperate messages.
Evidently, from looking at the code, it needs a 

From name <at> something.com Date:Time

The wiki I'm looking at seems a lot less secure than mutt.

That doc says there is no authoritative standard.  I'm wondering if most 
agents work similarly to mutt.
