Can anyone explain the following:

I have some rather large mailing lists that I'm trying to set up through
bulk_mailer, but the lists are lists of aliases.  So I used sendmail -bs
to expand the lists into valid addresses.  Anyways, here's the bottom of
my conversation:

...
250-<cep@kimep.kz>
250-<jmeyers@osi.hu>
250-<113060.224@CompuServe.COM>
250-<puruczky@osi.hu>
250 <monika@cepf.sk>


So I run this through sed and strip the 250's and end up with an expanded
list.  Here's the tail of 'cat allstaff':

...
<cep@kimep.kz>
<jmeyers@osi.hu>
<113060.224@CompuServe.COM>
<puruczky@osi.hu>
<monika@cepf.sk>
su-2.00# 

the tail of 'od -c':

...
0001500    i   .   h   u   >  \r  \n   <   c   e   p   @   k   i   m   e
0001520    p   .   k   z   >  \r  \n   <   j   m   e   y   e   r   s   @
0001540    o   s   i   .   h   u   >  \r  \n   <   1   1   3   0   6   0
0001560    .   2   2   4   @   C   o   m   p   u   S   e   r   v   e   .
0001600    C   O   M   >  \r  \n   <   p   u   r   u   c   z   k   y   @
0001620    o   s   i   .   h   u   >  \r  \n   <   m   o   n   i   k   a
0001640    @   c   e   p   f   .   s   k   >  \r  \n                    
0001653
su-2.00# 

and finally, the tail of 'more':

...
<cep@kimep.kz>
<jmeyers@osi.hu>
<113060.224@CompuServe.COM>
<puruczky@osi.hu>
<monika@cepf.sk>
ruczky@osi.hu>
<monika@cepf.sk>


su-2.00# 

So where's all the garbage coming from in 'more'?

Marc.
