For instance MDaemon users who use DomainPOP configuration and activate "download base on message size (less size first)" make your threading by reference will look bad (same happen with me now, if I enable that feature in retchmail). Mercury have the "limitation" in time stamping when more than one messages come in same (nearest) time, people who use Mercury and MUA which not having "receiving date" field will not aware about this, but not TB! users who often use Threading Mode <g>. Other case when our primary MX busy and the message must go to secondary MX first (one of some others reason why I set thebat.dutaint.com domain only have single MX). -- syafril ------- Syafril Hermansyah<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ________________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
