SUMMARY

When you compose a message on a Bulletin Board Service (BBS) and type a subject in the Subject area, the subject you typed also appears in the message's title bar.

If you use a tab character in the message subject, the tab character appears as spaces in the Subject area and as a pipe character (|) in the message's title bar. For example, the subject 

   "<tab character>This is the subject"
appears in the Subject area as 

   "     This is the subject"
and in the title bar as: 

   "|This is the subject"
