Thanks -- I set it to the abuse@ address.

There is an engineering group capable of fixing this and it should be 
fixed in the next release. (I think Don might have mentioned that? maybe 
not). Because of some platform changes the next release is a non-trivial 
effort and requires a huge amount of quality assurance checking before 
it can be released to production. So while the "-" fix is relatively 
simple, it is but a tiny part of a much larger effort. Trust me -- there 
is no one more anxious than I am to see the system not be stymied by 
hyphens.
