ummm... what will it do if the from, to, and subject lines are the same as
seen in many robot postings?? ;) that's why i would also add the time stamp
to the formula at least... see my previous post in allfix_help...

 TK> Could this be a bug in hpt? It is not happening here, though.

i'm not seeing it here, either... on this system, i rescanned all message
areas from my main system so i have a full load up to three years in most
all areas except file announcement areas and a few other highly repetative
areas (eg: bbs ads)... it should also be noted that there's two different
distribution systems in play and it is possible that nick is seeing dupes
because he's actually getting dupes of those messages...
