Hi Mutters,
I am gradually getting concerned that no one is caring about this bug (if
it's a bug and not a strange feature). Please let me know if there is
something I can do to change this strange behaviur of mutt. I can't find
anything in the manual and FAQ. Hope I didn't overlook anything.
The problem is that my syncronizing software ("unison") depends on the
timestamp to work correctly.
Here is my mail again, just to be sure:

> 4 kept, 0 deleted.

Thanks,
Andy.
