   yessir it was... i saw that it was a one time occurance and figured you would   
   get enough grief from others about it ;)

   yeah, i'd have to go look but yes, i believe they were from your /6...

   not a problem...   
      
   one thing that does not seem right, though, is that the rescan evidently   
   redated all those messages to the current date of the rescan... that isn't   
   right, AFAIK... maybe it was done so the messages could be retained on the   
   system for X days... i can see that if the software being used only has one   
   date field to work with... i like those with three date fields... one for the   
   message's date, one for the arrival on my system and one for when the   
   receipient has read the message... in this way, purges are done on the arrival   
   date and/or the receipient read date leaving the original message date alone...
