I'd be happy to do this, or, failing a response, start a new thread
that updates the old one. A link to Edward Mendelson's site would also
make sense, if he's agreeable, as would a link to the vDos site itself.

> Sorry for putting the | character in the subject field.

On the contrary, I'm in your debt, as my Xymail routine is now proof
against it. I'd been "escaping" some, but not all, of the special
characters; for the record, they are:
^ & < > \ and |
When mentioned, not used, they need to be escaped, or quoted, thus:
^^ ^& ^< ^> ^\ and ^|
