    On the home page, when the newsgroup poster's "name" features a very long section containing no spaces (such as  "XXXXXXj-c2000@lycos.removethis.comXXXXXXX (JC)"), it can push the left hand cell of the table out too wide and mess up the look of that table. Perhaps that particular field should be trimmed if it's longer than a certain length and "..." added to the end.

    Agreed.
    <font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">
    $from4 = substr($from3, 0, 24);
    </font>

    I've settled on 25, which seems to be the max length of UBB username as well.
