Re: [gotmail] Ok, here's another one

[John Fruetel]

Boy, I'm really not sure.  I'm a little confused on how the first patch 
could work, but not the new versions.  What's really surprising me is that 
the latest version seems to work fine for some people, but not others.  And 
since it always seems to work fine for me, it might be a little tough for me 
to debug.

Wait a minute. Version 7.10?  My gotmail is based on 7.9, the latest one I 
had.  Maybe that's the problem?  Since Savanah is dead, can someone post the 
ORIGINAL 7.10 code to the mailing list?

Also, instead of me posting new versions to the mailing list, can I get a 
few volunteers to try the next versions?  Since I have no way of telling if 
my changes will address other peoples problems (it always works for me), 
I'll need a few guinea pigs to send versions to for testing.
