OT: UNIX email question/problem

[Fairlight]

When asked his whereabouts on Mon, Aug 02, 2004 at 08:19:06AM -0400,
Courtney took the fifth, drank it, and then slurred:

> We send emails out using the following commands
>
> kk(500,*)="Generated from dailyimp/import\n"<aa{"| mail -s
> "<ua<eb<"From"<ur<pn
[snip]
> It gets to who it should, but it also generates a bunch weird
> emails...like these:  From at north-sh.nsa; OSI at north-sh.nsa;
> "Rou"@north-sh.nsa; SERVI at north-sh.nsa; TV3 at north-sh.nsa;
> courtney at northshoreagency.com; dailyimp at north-sh.nsa

Force literal quotes to be forced around your values in the command.  In
that way, you could also dump the underscores in the subject.  Quoting your
values literally will force them to be interpreted as one argument, not
many.  

I dunno why it's truncating some of them, but considering what you're doing
to it in the first place, nothing would surprise me much.  :)
