Something like > X-Content-Modified: Fri, 1 Jul 2005 10:18:04 -0700 (MDT) That sounds like a good idea. But it appears to me that (thinking of the current "re-threading" implementation) TB has no real way of altering message headers once they're in the messagebase. Perhaps the whole thing should be an administrative setting: a "revision proof" mode that does not allow changes, and a "normal user" mode that allows changes to be made. A while ago some (cough-cough) people here had a heated discussion on whether its OK for gmail to scan mails & show ads fitting the content. It was argued then that, once a message is sent, you no longer own it, and the recipient may do whatever he wants with it. I can agree with that. After all, I'm free to throw away page two of my insurance invoice, or page three of a letter from my mother, whenever I want to. -- Best regards, Alexander (http://www.neurowerx.de - ICQ 238153981) Allen's Distinction: The lion and the calf shall lie down together, but the calf won't get much sleep. ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.5.36 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
