   Hi! Wilfred,   
      
   On Thu, 07 Sep 17, you wrote to me:

   Maybe so.  They were only test posts within a 'sandbox'.  OTOH, I've just now   
   checked the mail bundle with David Nugent's 'InspectA' util, and found the   
   posts were written properly.  Even the TZUTC values were correct.

   I used to when I first started toying with FMail/lnx, but soon turned that   
   off.  They're effectively being backup up for the duration of the testing   
   phase by not being sent anywhere.  They're boxed in as if "lab rats".  :)   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
