I have noticed this too, and it seems to me that it's mostly happening with KMail and Pine from what I see in the headers. It may not only be these that are giving this problem, so maybe it's just a wrong observeration. With the e-mails where it's going wrong however, the "In-Reply-To: header is being set my the mailers, and this is confusing the Mandrake filters or something. Very annoying I know :-( Even my e-mails are getting this problem, and I have looked in the Pine setup but thereis reference as to how to change that. I think it's a server-side config that has to be changed. Greetings Ralph -- Homepage: http://tuxpower.f2g.net/
