SYMPTOMS
========
Incoming messages that contain a line longer than 79 characters are wrapped
after the 78th column, and the 79th character is deleted.
CAUSE
=====
When OUTPOST.EXE parses a message, it looks for the carriage return- linefeed
(CR/LF) combination to indicate the end of the line. The 79th character is not
being preserved during this check.
