1.62, Solaris 2.5.1. It is part of the body of the message that is getting
lost. Note that it is something in the middle and not the end of a
message. That is, a chunk is taken out of the body of the message, then it
resumes.

A majordomo digest is a digested version of a majordomo mailing list. It
is usually >30K.

It is possible that this is what is happening, since many lists have
several people at the same domain (AOL, etc).
