Hello Avon,

 Av> So what time is it now? Half past cow or closer to rooster o'clock? :)

We are coming up on rooter hour here, around 7am this time of year.

 Av> It would be interesting to see if some logic could be built into a

They could but I wonder if it is worth it. I don't recall a time when 
something like this happened. Simpler to fix the buggy bot if the author is 
willing to do that.

There has been the odd dump of old messages. Those can be caught with dupe 
detection and not importing echomail over 30 or 60 days. That's the way I 
handle that here.

Whatever features are built into your tosser take time to execute/handle at 
each toss.

 Ttyl :-),

.... All those updates, and still imperfect!
