I've never seen uneven timestamps in my editor. Hell, at the moment of writing i see 12:43:49 in the header on the from/to lines. But after saving the mail it switched to 12:43:48, lucky me. ;-)

As far as i remember squish does have a 2 seconds resolution. But i don't know why. If i do not see further than my nose i would say 2 second resolution is the standard and if you have uneven timestamps in your msgbase than that is the bug.

Is this speculation/theory or could you name a real issue?
