Hello g00r00!

Thank you for your reply!

Thanks a lot! Seems to be working just as intended!
(I replaced /NOFROM with /YOU for my MN.)

Although when I changed the last read date for the MYSTIC echomail area to two days back and performed the global personal scan, MQ (/NOSCAN /NOFOOT /NEW /YOU /LIST /NOREAD) acted up and didn't find anything for some reason. Checked the message list (Read, Forward, scroll to end) and the messages (some of them from you, to me) were correctly flagged as "N" (new), and still MQ didn't find them. Changing the LR date worked fine yesterday to force your replies to me to reappear in MQ (and the subsequent MN), but not this time. Really strange...

Anyway, I posted two test messages in FSX_TST to myself (both to my alias and real name) and that worked just fine; they appeared in both MQ and MN as they should.

Thanks again for the rapid add of the /YOU flag!

P.S. The comment in whatsnew.txt suggests that it is /G (the global scan option) that is affected by /YOU, but it really is /P (the personal scan option) that is affected, right? D.S.

Best regards
