   You should probably test against the upcoming release as I found an issue in   
   the dupe checker (which is already fixed now) that breaks the whole thing.

   Good point, I didnt consider the case that one receives a message created on   
   the same system. In this case, the dupe checker actually currently never sees   
   the message. Will change that.

   Whereever it went, it is now back ;)
