I am *so* ashamed that you actually use OE as your primary mail client. After all these years, Nat! 'gasp' UN-believable.
FWIW, I've got almost every message since March 2000. They're in a handy PINE format mailbox that can be manipulated easily with test utilities. <glance NK's direction> I've got a few messages with broken headers, and I deleted a small handful of "Oh yeah?"/"Yeah"/"Oh yeah?"/"Yeah" exchanges between some of our senior members. Still, the collection's over 2,700 messages deep. I can offer them if you want them. -- -j On Thu, 6 Sep 2001, Nathaniel B. Klumb wrote: > Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2001 22:01:07 -0500 > From: Nathaniel B.
