Simon/Booth:

Yep, Currently running the latest update to Netscape 4.04 for Warp. 
(Got 4.61 running on my test machine, too chicken to run it in
production yet).

I don't specifically remember Johns mail with missing test but I do
remember seeing some of those as well as the duplicates.  I also
looked at my 'trash' and found several of those duplicate messages -
all from MS mail products. Hmmmmm.
