vfolders arne't allowed to use specific headers, and filters can use the whole message anyway. But for mailing list determination, there are a bunch of headers that may be needed and the references headers, so ... i see why we just get all the headers down. I suspect some of the disk caching build process is slowing it down a fair bit though. _______________________________________________ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
