Ive noticed... I havnt done my mail on EFN in a couple months... last night I
spent a few hours going through old mail that had been magily re-marked as
new, and going deleteing an additional 1000+ message that have come in since
the last few months, most of which was spam (and a lot of eug-lug admin
stuff...). I still havnt had the chance look at the 20 or so legitimate mail!

abusive.')
