BTW Scott, something's fscked in your headers and it causes your messaages to get threaded improperly. There are two headers: In-Reply-To: <20060705151336.8EA0C737B8@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> References: <20060705151336.8EA0C737B8@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> that don't seem to be set right. I can find no message with a message-id of 20060705151336.8EA0C737B8@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Any idea if it's Evolution adding them for you (and why) or if it's being added somewhere else? - -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xD654075A | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ====================================================================== I do not believe in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance. -- Thomas Carlyle -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: When crypto is outlawed bayl bhgynjf jvyy unir cevinpl. iG0EARECAC0FAkSr8bYmGGh0dHA6Ly93d3cucG9ib3guY29tL350bXovcGdwL3Rt ei5hc2MACgkQuv+09NZUB1oztwCg4FIhnF0+u3npvevvMMw7Fy6vUPUAn080PaQd KtCe6agFsROT+AUbDqJ2 =huLa -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
