   Hi Oliver,

   There's also the problem that the squish message base stores date/time stamps   
   with a resolution of 2 seconds. That has been causing problems in the past   
   where a squish system forwarded messages to its other links with the   
   date/times changed from the original, and so causing undetected dupes on some   
   systems.   
      
   This is of course only a problem if you have more than 1 link to an echomail   
   area. Which is never (or shouldn't) be the case for a point system. ;)   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
