Subj : Squish dupe detection.

Hello All.

I have an ongoing problem with Squish and its somewhat broken dupe detection 
(false dupes).  I have in my configs 'DupeCheck MSGID' and 'Dupes 900' yet it 
still has problems, particularly with messages coming from mailing lists gated 
into echo format.  Sometimes a whole group of messages arrives at once and all 
end up with the same MSGID.  Needless to say, Squish traps all but the first 
one.  It doesn't seem to make _any_ difference enabling the 'DupeLongHeader' 
with 'DupeCheck Header MSGID' - it seems to ignore the header info.  

Do you think disabling the MSGID check would help any?   Or has anyone done any 
updating on Squish to improve this performance; or perhaps some sort of 
workaround like an external dupe detector?  In fact, can dupe detection be 
completely disabled in Squish?

Best regards,
Marc
