  Not so.   Squish has the ability to use two different sorts of
  duplicate checking.   One is based on MSGID.  The other is based on
  the header info (TO, FROM, SUBJ and DATE).  If *either* of these two
  things is a match, then Squish calls the message a dupe.   Hence if
  someone happens to send a bunch of messages to the same person, all
  with the same subject and the same date/time stamp then squish will
  call all but the first a dupe if that option is set.   Since some
  systems do Y2K protection by inserting the date/time of upload, this
  can cause a problem.
