i mentioned a problem with a message stuck in the bitnet_gateway channel:

>I cannot even guess what the problem is without some sort of log showing
>what happens when delivery is attempted.
    i did send a log before, it got truncated before making it to the
list. :-( briefly, bn_gateway.exe is dying with an access violation.

appended here are a copy of bit_gateway_master.log, the message i
eventually get sent, and, again, the spool file that's causing the
trouble. is this an isolated problem with a damaged mail message, a (no
doubt) stupid blunder in my configuration, or something else?
