My list shows 1580, I wonder where the difference is.
I copied the archive to a local file, made a 2nd copy
deleted all of the messages prior to 28 feb, then loaded
the result in netscape, it had 1580 email in it.
Then just by looking I estimated the Feb ad Jan emails.

You did not read all of the RECURRENCE-ID issues did you?
They were not all only about RECURRENCE-ID. There were
messages where people did not change the subject line
or mixed multiple topics in the message.
