I wouldn't put that on top of my list of priorities if I were you. If the name you present in the nodelist and the from field of your messages is your real name and not a simplification for the sake of ASCII representation, and you do not use non-ASCII in your messages, the missing CHRS kludge is not a big thing.

I suggest you give priority to the MSGID/REPLY issue. Your MSGID misses the leading hex 01 and so it is not recognised by others as such. Without a MSGID there can be no REPLY kludge. IOW it breaks the reply chaining. Finding the original message in a busy area can become a bit of a challlenge.


Cheers, Michiel
