In fact, both messages made it just fine, Sam.

Hmm..  Yes it did...   I found them in junk-pile, and the reason was:

Your MUA software doesn't do proper text element quoting, when said
element has RFC-822 specials in it.

Had the Cc: been either of following, there would not have been this
syntax error biting on junk filter:

      Eric W Biederman  <ebiederm@xmission.com>
      "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

Have fun.

Thanks for that diagnostic, Matti. I had considered that the reason
might have been something to do with the recipients, but thought that a
binary search involving them would have been a tad rude.
