- The following revelation escaped Robert Honerkamp's lips:

- Me too! I usually go into ELM, sort my mailbox by Date Mail Sent, scan
- for messages which contain my name (e-mail, replies, etc.), then delete all
- the repeats. There's usually a 4 or 5-day "hole" in the message dates
- which separates the old from the new. Of the 575 or so messages in my
- mailbox today (one week's worth), around 280 of them are repeats. Maybe
- Dave Lyons can shed some light on this.
