Subject: Re: Outlook Express problems reading comp.lang.ruby


Hi Daz,

same here (using OE 6.00.2800).  Although I don't need to reboot: Win 2k's
TaskManager can take care of that.

Although the MS implementation seems to have problems with the graph
traversal with loops (i.e. endless looping) I regard inserting a self
reference in a posting no good style either.  Maybe we can generate some
fictuous message id as reference or - even better - insert the real thing.

Regards

    robert
