So you are saying that if it happens that two
separate and independent
modules for a pure chance modify the same header field, the resulting
message is corrupt???
yes.
I think this is a GREAT limitation (I'd call it a bug) of the lumps
handling code...
it's not a limitation of the code, but of the concept. having a set of
parallel changes starting from the same initial text may lead to
inconsistency.....
that's a tribute for speed.....
