Perhaps the y2k-bug won't hurt you then. I suppose NetMgr will still move
and copy mails correctly; it will (IMHO) only give you problems when it
creates new mails - these ones will be grundged, as it writes
"100" instead of "00" for the year.
I still think that this problem could be easiliy worked around with a small
extra program that runs before the tosser and corrects just this single
charakter. Isn't there any author of some kind of filter-utility out there
who could easily add this feature to his program? It really doesn't seem to
be a big deal to me (though I don't want to write such a program on my own,
I must admit :-).
Sorry for getting offtopic, but I still hope to find someone to fix this problem...
