Because once the copy is complete, there are TWO different messages which each could be opened and edited and saved independantly I think...
With hardlinks there would only be one... which would be more of a "clone" then a "copy" ;-) m/ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jon Nelson Sent: Wednesday, March 19, 2003 11:35 AM To: Courier-Users Subject: [courier-users] Question about COPY operation Is there any reason why using hardlinks to accomplish the COPY operation is not feasible?
