It is possible to edit the messages (be it exporting - editing - importing or by a special botton "edit incoming message"), and therefore they can hardly be used as evidence. AFAIK what courts do is they pull off the message from both the sender's and the recipient's machine, and if there is not differenece (except for the Received headers), the mail will be accepted. This has nothing to do with whether TB will allow the user to do his editing within the application or not. The law (whic country's law are we talking abut, anyway?) does not depend on TB. And if the feature is implemented, you are not forced to use it. -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste.
