Not yet, no.  I have to apologize, I've been busy getting my brother married.  I
shall do so post-haste.

Yeah, sorry.  I actually looked for and didn't find the patch, and it wasn't
immediately obvious to me how to apply your explanation of how exim worked to
mutt, nor could I test the results since I currently have no access to 9x/ME.
I'll be releasing a -2 shortly and I'll get this in it.  Thanks for bringing
this to my attention Pierre (and for sending the patch upstream).
