Subject: Mail and logged in user  

Hello

Was playing with elog. I send mail to the persons involved with a elog entrie. This mail produces something like this ( rather default) .

 Logbook: Accelerator  Message ID: 4    Entry time: 05/10/09 21:48:25     In reply to: 3

When I am logged in into elog , clicking on the Message ID 4 or 3 from the mail client , elog is started with the logged in user at that time and it's permissions.  So instead of starting a new elog session ( and getting the guest permission ) I get the permission of the currently logged in user.( Could be the administrator / root) . The process will function correctly i no one is logged in into elog. I've tested this on a local machine, so I cannot say if the same happens when multiple  machines are used. So, maybe it's a bug, maybe it's my testing  configuration. 

Do not know if i explained  the problem clear enough, but is seems something that could be examined.

By the way : thanks for this great and free program.
