Yup. It will also break the lists feature of mutt (a great
power mailer who's interface was initially based on ELM, but hints of
PINE, MUSH and SLRN are also present). If you get lots of mail
(list or otherwise, I highly reccomend you grab mutt).
With the Lyris authors doing something as questionable as
rewriting the To: header, it makes me question how well they
understand what they are doing...
