I can insert a space and see what happens. The flood of viruses has
subsided, so I may not have much testing material. But the odd thing
about the problem was its intermittentcy. Sometimes it would split the
messages properly; other times, on messages with an identical
virus-flag header, it would dump them in the regular mail folder.

Gotcha.

Thanks,
