Pasting something in .spam to discuss how SC parses it causes a number
of problems which are caused by your newsreader's posting of the spam
into the message body to introduce linewraps which interfere with the
ability of the parser to parse the item, so spam posting in spamcop.spam
is a very very poor substitute for posting the tracker of the item which
you originally submitted to the parser.  That tracker way we can see the
same parse result which you saw.  See my tracker below.

When I 'work with' the item you 'bent' by posting it into .spam, I have
to remove improper linewraps.  If improper linewraps were present in the
original and that was what caused the problem, those improper linewraps
get removed by me just like the 'improper' line wraps which you
introduced when you posted it into .spam.

Bottom line:  if you want to talk about how spamcop parsed a spam, don't
post it in .spam the way we used to.  Instead, feed it to the parser and
copy the tracking url and paste that into any group you like,
spamcop.help or spamcop.  There is no longer any need for the usage of
spamcop.spam now that the tracker contains all of the original spam item
in addition to the parsing tracker.

Here is the tracker for your spam indicating that what I repaired from
your post and submitted to the parser was able to show the links.
