Some . . . .|messages don't show the mailer information, some show the name but not . . . .|the OS, so I ignored those. I just find it interesting to see such a . . . .|large percentage coming from non-*nix machines in newsgroups about *nix . . . .|OS's. . . . .|I had some free time finally, and used it counting header info.
