there are no empty lines above after the last control line...

you still haven't found where "not modifying messages in transit" is discussed?

your message arrived here via this path... we already know that 320/219 and 
3634/12 are not removing blank lines from the beginning of the message body... 
that leaves 203/2 and/or 203/0 performing this defect... kinda like the ones 
that inject hard-CRs and force wrap in-transit messages to <80 chars per 
line... neither of those actions is correct for a tosser that tosses directly 
from the inbound PKT into the outbound PKTs... with your knowledge and 
experiance, you shouldn't have to ask me where this is discussed :/
