Hello TB Beta List, In "Add_Reference Now Works" posted to the TB Tech List, I presented a fairly robust solution to rethread messages. It works with both In-Reply-To and References block. There can be none, only one block, both blocks and they can be anywhere in the message, contiguous or not and in any order.
I tested it with every possibility I could think of (21 test messages). I ran into two problems with Beta/9. The first is it didn't work for any of the 21 tests. Changing the ending `\n\n\z` to `\n\z` had it working fine in Beta/9 - something changed in Beta/9 wrt, I think, space at the end of %Header. The second problem is that, although the macro response quickly in 19 of the tests, 2 were quite slow (around 5 seconds on an 800 Mhz P3). Those 2 cases never happen (a In-Reply-To block without a References block and appearing at the start of the header, and a References block without a In-Reply-To block also appearing at the start of the header). I retested on 1.62r and didn't see any performance problems for those two cases. There appears to be some regex evaluation slowdown in the Beta. -- Best regards, Bill ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 1.63b9 | "Using TBBETA" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
