script to break up mp3s

[Joseph Sinclair]

People, PLEASE don't make anything with a ":" in it the first line of a message!  SMTP interprets that as a custom header field and many programs strip it out or hide it.  Just include a non-empty line of text before any links or such (a simple salutation works) and the results will be much improved.
