System name:		rar
Type and version:	KN01 7.3P (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		PMAX-CFB

What were you trying to do?
    Forwarding mail from a user that had used TechMail to include a binary
    file (binhexed).

What's wrong:
    The binhex file is unusable.  Lines in the binex portion that begin with
"-" are being prefixed with "- ".

What should have happened:
     I realize that this "feature" is to distinguish imbedded forwarded mail,
but this is destroying a primary feature of TechMail.  There should be a way
to turn this off from xmh.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
