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.

			Xury,

This was discussed in the Urth Mail Archives Volume 2. The summary link
text of the first message in the discussion was:

 (urth) Agilus' mask   Ranjit Bhatnagar <ranjit at best.com>    Tue, 1 Jul
                                                             1997 13:23:35

No complete consensus was reached on what the "ribbon episode" meant.
