I'm hoping that I fixed this on Oct 21.  Please tell me that
your code is from before then.  The weak link was in nmh's MIME
parser, and needed help from m_getfld() for the fix.

I see a null in message every once in a while.  A closer look shows:
1) The null is only in quoted-printable encoded content.
2) It's always in a bulk message.
3) The message FROM: header is always capitalized.
4) The sender is a non-profit.
5) The mail was sent from a Blackbaud server.

I'll report it to them.
