Presumably it does it by sending out 50 separate messages. This is
because it needs separate headers for each version. That is, I assume
that the visiable headers will be something like

From: Previous Victim <pv@address>
To: Next Victim <nv@other-address>
Subject: Inportant Message From Previous Victim

I can't confirm that. The one copy sent to Cranfield was deleted before I
had a chance to inspect it.

As for your real question

I'll leave that to the experts, but I don't think it is a solution to this
problem (or many others). Remember the RFCs do say that you should be
willing to handle 100 at a time.

Relativism is the triumph of authority over truth, convention over justice.
