Weird tagging issue

[Daniel Kahn Gillmor]

Hi Brian--

whew, what a mess!

I'm having a hard time identifying a specific problem, but I did notice
this surprising sequence:

The surprising thing about this output is that there appear to be 4
copies of message that References: itself!

And, many many other messages also reference that message too.

Would you be willing to send me the full headers from one of the above 4
files so i can verify that this is correct?

I have no idea whether this is part of the problem you're seeing, but it
is certainly unusual.
