I should also point out that a large proportion of the possible readers of
the original message would _not_have_been_able_to_read_it_, as the headers
reference a Japanese character set, and metamail tries to invoke kterm to
display it.  

When it fails, 99% of readers will just delete the message and move on; 
there's just too much mail to deal with to fight with someone's badly
configured mailer.
