Why doesn't it put the two days of july 16yh 1999 toghether in one
list ????? It does this several times on several dates !!

I see the same behavior, but I assumed it was due to my archival style.  

I've got old mail stored in monthly files (like /mlist/year/07.mbox),
and new mail procmailed into buckets (like /mlist/year/07.mbox.new).
Every couple hours a cron job reminds a perl script to check for those
new files, and if found, to feed them to mhonarc with appropriate
arguments.  Then it appends new to old, and clears new.

I see the double-date problem crop up only the first time mail is added
to an archive.  When I go back later, after another block of new mail
has arrived and been added, sometimes there will be a new set of mail
separated from its day, but the older mail will have been folded into
the rest.

I'm using 2.3.3 on freebsd, perl 5.004_4.  Here's my resource file
snippet:

<TABLE BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="2" CELLPADDING="1">
