My new compile of core.exe sent it at 151 characters,

However... as we see here... the server at freelists (and coollist as-well),
line-wrapped it at 127
http://www.nowhere.com/xznbc,mnbvzal;kfngakl;fjngkl;asjgnklsjg;slkxjnbzl;kbnz/;kldbna'lkdbna'lkbfan'lbazknbz.xknbz.x,bcvzmn'L:k
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________L:k=127-->^

BTW,
To show that it was in-fact the freelists and coollist servers that did it.

The BCC I sent my own address made it through the servers at
SBCglobal.net and at CisNet with the 151 character URL 100% intact.
