The archival software I wrote in the golden era of email, when
everything was plain text, with linefeeds. I'm being somewhat
of a curmudgeon about not fixing it, because I haven't really accepted
the HTMLified, non-linewrapped business that Outlook and friends send
into my heart as email yet. That and I'm notoriously lazy.
