Hmm, OK, I'll keep that in mind .. For sorting my mails, though, I'll
stick with the DateTimes. 

It would be cool if ZMailIn was more flexible as to which catalog it
uses and what properties are indexed, without requiring one to hack the
source .. I'll see if I can think of a way to make it so. 

Thanks for the answer,
Jean
