Hi Paul,

apparently your mailer misquoted my material and didn't indent properly. 
Some mailers do that if producing HTML output, some need explicit 
quoting configuration.

Anyways, the underlying message deletion code in other leafnode code 
parts (outside texpire, but shared with it) does not support a dry-run 
mode of operation, so I've gone ahead and fixed only the immediate 
damage for now, the TODO file has just been amended to accordingly, so 
I'll fix that properly later.

Best regards,
Matthias
