It's really not unlike        what I see what some email programs try to do to help sort        messages in a larger visual way. Besides, we (OXP users) also        have the option to use the wonderful S)earch features to        identify messages within a date range.              If there were a change in the DD.MM vs MM/YY, I would rather        have the option to retain that presentation as a config setting        instead of replacing it with something to "fix" it.              --        ../|ug       --- OpenXP 5.0.51        * Origin: The ONLY point that matters! --> . <-- (2:221/1.58)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 30/0 90/1 103/705 105/81 106/201 120/340 123/131       SEEN-BY: 129/305 330 153/7715 203/0 218/700 221/1 6 360 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 229/110 206 307 317 400 424 426 664 700 240/1120 5832 266/512       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 282/464 1038 292/854 301/0 1 101 113 317/3 320/219       SEEN-BY: 322/757 335/364 342/200 396/45 423/81 633/280 712/848 920/1       SEEN-BY: 5058/104       PATH: 221/1 301/1 229/426           |
