Cool! That means I can use: folder-hook =inbox set record="=sent" to record everything I sent. Then I can generate a unique link name via safecat and hardlink all unlinked messages in 'sent' to a link name in "inbox". I could skip all the perl messageID scanning and maintain threads and a separate 'sent' record list on the fly. I like it. Thanks for the feedback.
