Correct.  That's a work-around.  As I said, it's one of the issues on a 32
bit file system, and it's also a problem on 32 bit data bases, which is
what the mail in many of the mail clients is stored on, whether it's
Windows, Linux, Unix or other OS's.  Generally, the problem isn't with the
OS, it's with the applications.
