This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

As a p.s. to this (though I reserve my right to not necessarily agree with
it), "Hethor" is an extremely puzzling name. Nearly all the NS names can be
traced (mantis can quickly tell you what few can't), but I went though hoops
trying to track this one, with no results. (Please don't invoke Egyptian
Hathor; it doesn't compute.)
