    feature, but it is doable. Some oddity with message scan config / pointers might occur also, I don't recall.

    FWIW, I did try that several years ago and it did cause something "odd" to happen. I don't remember what, but it was enough to make me stop doing so. This would have been well over 10 years ago, IIRC.
