Notes
=====
- A line in the body of a post is considered to be original if it
does *not* match the regular expression /^\\s{0,3}(?:>|:|\\S+>|\\+\\+)/.
- All text after the last cut line (/^-- $/) in the body is
considered to be the author's signature.
- The scanner prefers the Reply-To: header over the From: header
in determining the "real" e-mail address and name.
- Original Content Rating (OCR) is the ratio of the original content
volume to the total body volume.
NOTE If you reply to a 10 line question with a 2 line answer, then your
conscience can remain be clear. Be honest with yourself.
