If you get as much mail as I do, you'll want to increase the size of the message-id cache to something along the lines of 16k or even 32k (I got about 2/3rds of the dupes because the message-ids had already expired out of my 16k cache). -cgw- -- christopher williams cgw@pobox.com nana korobi, yo oki fnord
