Re: Whack of changes to archives ...

Marc,

have you checked what exactly Last-Modified is ?

megera@mira:~/app/php$ curl -I http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2004-01/msg00419.php
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2004 20:32:15 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.28 (Unix) PHP/4.3.3RC1
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.3RC1
Last-Modified: 01/20/04 17:03:50

But message itself is posted
