I have seen uqwk barf and refuse to post long References: fields. The only
trouble I have seen with Yarn was a 0.89 bug that mangled the references
field if the post was cc'd to email and the references field was very long.
I haven't seen this bug with 0.91 at all.

Sometimes the apparent gap in the references field is due to line wrap
on your screen, and the data itself is intact.
