<shrug> Well, fair enough; I can see that from the server's point of
view it's not a reasonable thing to do! I just had an idea that it was
possible, which from the point of view of the code it obviously was

I shall just have to try to remember not to mark large headered messages
for acceptance *after* hanging up late at night, with the consequence
that I have to download them before I can accept anything else the next
day. :-)
(The daft thing is that I've got all the paraphernalia for delaying
large messages in place; it just only really works out if I remember to
do a second pass while still dialled in after accepting the messages!)
