I think the incident that Tim is remembering is when I asked a very similar
question to this a little while back.  Mark Hammond also came across this
behaviour around the same time.  It's definitely the McMillan software that
does it.  If you want details, they'd definitely be in the recent (last
couple of months) archives here (a google for "Meyer fnctl Peters" would
probably find it), and also in the spambayes archives (google for "fnctl
spambayes site:mail.python.org").
