Here it is, Chris.

A good approach to the problem--it keeps all the hacked-off bits of the original
message. When I get the time, I think I'll still hook this into a custom FTPd to
Zopify/unZopify HTML documents published to the server. (The usefulness of an
unZopify method might be questionable in some cases, but I'd like to be able to
"give back what I got" if that's what the client asks for.)

And BTW, Itamar, sorry for the (twice! oops..) misplaced thanks--whether you're
the author or not, I'm equally grateful for your help.
