I just looked at the inbox file with the tail command, and here is one of the hundreds of emails I get a day: ------- >From unknown@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Thu Nov 23 21:00:09 2006 X-UID: Status: R X-Status: NC X-KMail-EncryptionState: X-KMail-SignatureState: X-KMail-MDN-Sent: Learned tokens from 0 message(s) (0 message(s) examined) ------- Now, kmail displays that date as 18:59:59 Dec 31, 1969! So whatever it is thats doing it has little or no concept of a properly formatted email message. All I want to do is kill it, hopefully by a system friendly means. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
