Superflous "user defined" headers? Is there even such a thing? I thought that's what X-headers were defined for, superflous user-defined fun. Just because Micro$oft LookOut and cousins try to use it as a meta-data tag doesn't mean that others can't use the header. If the X-message-flag is bugging you, you can use your ISP's shell account to add a procmail recipe to remove the header: :0 fw: * ^X-message-flag | formail -I X-message-flag Violla, no more message header. Unfortunately, the fix for thread hijacking isn't nearly as simple. It actually DOES require user participation. I for one will continue to rib LookOut users for choosing a buggy, insecure, and inferior mail user agent. It's fun, slightly annoying, and if people get the motivation to learn about their favorite MUA to stop the slightly annoying ribbing, then I've done my job to increase user awareness. Anyway, back to your regularily scheduled wireless discussions... -- Chad Walstrom <chewie at wookimus.net> | a.k.a. ^chewie http://www.wookimus.net/ | s.k.a. gunnarr
