Wow. I thought I'd seen everything when it comes to people's confusion
with sending email. I was wrong.
The references line is added by your mail software when you
*respond*to*the*message*. You don't add it to the subject. It makes no
sense do do so. Please don't do this again. Adding a reference line as
the subject doesn't help anyone.
And, please don't add the headers to the body of the message either.
That makes no sense either.
