The 2.1.x is a technology preview. Don't run it unless your ready to deal with problems.
Downgrading to 2.0.6 is not a problem. The new tables simply won't be used. My guess is the decoding problem with outlook won't be solved by that though, but don't let that keep you from trying, of course :-) Seiji T wrote: > i) When using thunderbird, when i click on a message, the wrong message > appears in the message box.

Thunderbird simply doesn't update it's cache properly, and doesn't offer an option to rebuild it's cache other than manual deletion of some files in ~/.thunderbird/default/xxxxx/ImapCache/ iirc. > ii) However, Outlook 2003 has trouble decoding some MIME attachments via > dbmail.

Could be there's a problem with the CRLF conversion that is ignored by thunderbird, but makes OE go bezerk.

There won't be a problem. -- ________________________________________________________________ Paul Stevens mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] NET FACILITIES GROUP PGP: finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Netherlands________________________________http://www.nfg.nl
