Hi. I have been having these major problems for a long time and I hope 
someone can help.

Platform:
dbmail 2.1.2 on gentoo 2.6.10-co-0.6.2 (gentoo on colinux).
-> recently upgraded from 2.1.1
MySQL 4.1.12a-nt on Windows XP SP2

Problems:
i) When using thunderbird, when i click on a message, the wrong message 
appears in the message box. Outlook 2003 doesn't seem to have this problem 
though.

ii) However, Outlook 2003 has trouble decoding some MIME attachments via 
dbmail. I've confirmed that when Thunderbird user sends an digitally-signed 
email /w attachments. Outlook 2003 is neither able to verify the signature 
or decode the attachments correctly.
If I use Thunderbird, it is able to verify the signature as well as 
correctly decode the MIME attachment. Of course, I need to find go through 
several messages b/c of the above mentioned problem. 
I will conclude that this is a dbmail problem since Outlook 2003 and 
Courier-IMAP combination doesn't seem to have this problem.

iii) I've been getting the following critical error message and I think it 
is dbmail-related.

(process:xxxxx): gmime-CRITICAL ** parse_rfc822_date: assertion `tokens != 
NULL' failed

The gmime version, I am using is as follows:

# EXPECT_KEYWORD=~x86 emerge --pretend --deep gmime
:::
[ebuild R ] dev-libs/gmime-2.1.14-r1 

Also I used to see glibc messages as well. I don't see them today... I am 
not sure if this is related to gmime or glibc but here is the version:

# EXPECT_KEYWORD=~x86 emerge --pretend --deep glibc
:::
[ebuild U ] sys-libs/glibc-2.3.5 [2.3.4.20041102-r1] 

*note* If I try to upgrade glibc to 2.3.5, the whole system crashes.

Would there be any way, I can fix these problems? I would need to solve at 
least i) or ii) and If not, I am thinking it might be better downgrade from 
2.1.2 to 2.0.6. But is the downgrading safe? I am thinking there might be db 
scheme compatibility problem.

Again, I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!
