I'm sorry to tell you your messages are hopelessly obscure. This is no way 
to communicate. And your copious spelling errors aren't any help either. If 
your programming is as sloppy as your messages, one would have to be a brave 
soul to install your gunk.

The sender shall do it??

The sender? --will notify himself??

Or are you talking about some intermediate "sender"?

>You can't know if it's forget or not without trying to send a message.

So? Then try.

Or do you "forget" what we were talking about?

I proposed what seemed like a simple idea about 50 messages ago: An ISP 
would be doing its users a favor by rejecting pending spam before they 
retrieve it. You objected to deletion without notification. I said ok then 
notify the senders. Now you seem to have some further objection but it's 
unintelligible, despite my best efforts.

Now I'm giving up on this discussion -- I ain't got the time.
