True of course, Henrik. However, since he has since pointed out that
eudora does what he wants, maybe this would be something THOR should
do in the next edition. If eudora can do that from (I get the
impression) more than one site as he says, then there obviously must
be some sort of a flag in the ISP's mail descriptor that would either
indicate it has been read once, or is accessable from eudora so it
can set/clear it, thereby preventing the *next copy* of uedora from
re-reading it again.  I wonder how they do that??

Cheers
