[BAA Comets] MPC Acknowledgement

[Nick James]

Hi Peter,

Zero doesn't look good. It implies that their parser is not seeing any 
valid observations after the header. You need to make sure you are 
sending the file as plain text, not a MIME attachment or HTML.

If you want you can send me an example of your astrometry in exactly the 
way you send it to the MPC and I'll have a look when I get in.

Nick.
