Here is what I am seeing when I use the -v option. I do not recognize what is generating the error message, but pperhaps you will. Thanks.

Okay, I got it working but I had to change the authentication method of my mail server to Pop before SMTP.  I do not know why the username/password doesn't
work - it does work with Outlook Express. I would rather use the username/password method, but atleast things are working now.

icon1.gif   Author in duplicate message, posted by Silvia Borghi on Mon Aug 14 11:45:32 2006 
When I ask to duplicate a message, the author of the duplicated message is the one of the original message.
How can I put as author the name of the person that is login?
I tried to use the command  Preset on Duplicate Author  or Subst on Duplicate Author, but it does not work.

This was not implemented so far, but is a good idea. So I put it into SVN revision 1713. You either get the SVN update or wait for the next release of
