OK, I try again to be heard: From different mails we've seen to this issue and the fact I do _know_ GMX uses more than one server I came to the conclusion they are using either different software on different servers or different versions of the same software or simply different configurations on different servers. So not all insert that '>', but some seem to need it for _secure_ message storing. The '>' is not a thing of "let's annoy some people" but there were times and software that _needed_ it for secure message storing and re-retrieving. So if there're some 'old' servers that run such a software you can't do anything against this except changing server or software. And we all should know, this is a realy expensiv thing to do and therefore maybe this server will run until they have to be substituted anyway. If I had a 'Pro' account I'd expect them to make sure my mails reach me uneffected, because it could be important in case of e.g. a PGP or S/MIME signature. In any other case it's a pure cosmetic thing and for 'Free' users ind the meaning of 'non paying' I think it'S an acceptable 'limitation' in function for this great and nevertheless free service, even as it ain't a 'real' limitation. -- Regards Peter Palmreuther mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (The Bat! v1.54 Beta/14 on Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 1) Xyzzy doesn't mean shit. -- ________________________________________________________ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
