  17. Thank you, Matt, for the confirmation that MX is adding the quotes.  And, while
  18. I cetainly agree wholeheartedly with the above quoted statement, it doesn't
  19. help, because it doesn't solve an immediate problem.  Moreover, while text not
  20. containing special characters certainly isn't required to be quoted, quoting it
  21. is also legitimate.
