CM> Once messages are "killed" by removing dupes, where do they go They're marked as deleted, that means they'll purged from the messagebase the next time you compress the respective folders (either automatically or manually). If you haven't compressed yet you can check them by selecting the folder and choose from the menu: folder - browse deleted messages CM> I'm concerned that I might have lost lots of messages that TB CM> thought were dupes but they really weren't. That fear's only justified when you have contact that uses a broken mua, ie one that issues the same msgid over and over. Now we're discussing this. Recently somebody on TBOT was testing providers of DEA's (disposable e-mail addresses) one of those swapped the message-id with a constant string, so that all messages had a identical message-id. Might this latter be the case, you'll have to convince him/them to change services. -- Groetjes, Roelof ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60m FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://bt.ritlabs.com
