You can ask the listserv how many headers to preserve, that might have something to do with it? Not sure. Anyway, I receive mails from this list with full headers, because I specifically asked for it. In the subscription-webpage, <http://listserv.brown.edu/archives/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=conlang&A=1> it's either the option FULLHDR or the option IETFHDR. And on my machine, my previous message consisted of 78 lines, 26 of them content, the rest was headers; among them 8 'Received:'-blocks and quite a few inserted by the virus-scanner running on the server for incoming mail. PING! That might be it, the number of Received-lines will vary from recipient to recipient, and the size TO the list will also be different from FROM the list. t.
