Hmf.  Accidentally sent.

We are using leafnode for local groups only.  When we forward messages,
Outlook Express puts a news hyperlink in the body, as follows:

"Dennis W. Bulgrien" <dbulgrien@xxxxxxxx> wrote in message
news:<f5dn9a.ja.ln@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>...
> Hi all...

The message header for the example follows:

From: "Dennis W. Bulgrien" <dbulgrien@xxxxxxxx>
Newsgroups: vcsd.apps.cvs
Subject: Greetings
Date: Thu, 18 Apr 2002 16:18:13 -0500
Lines: 10
X-Priority: 3
X-MSMail-Priority: Normal
X-Newsreader: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.50.4133.2400
X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.50.4133.2400

You may not be able to see it, but Outlook automatically converts it to a
hyperlink, underlined blue text.  The problem it, Outlook is not smart
enough to underscore all of it.  The link from the 'n' in news: to the 'm'
in .com gets underlined but the greater-than '>' is not.  When the link it
clicked Outlook is unable to retrieve the requested message.

I know this is a bug in Outlook, but is there a way to change the delimiters
that leafnode uses to avoid this problem?
