1. After you import the text file, messages from you are no longer shown
highlighted in the author colour (usually red).
2. Messages from you are no longer shown as "To: <whoever>" in the thread
pane. Instead they are shown as being from you.
There's two types of mail, CIX mail and Internet Mail. If it's a CIX mail,
it does the compare against your CIX user ID, if it's an internet mail it
goes off the Cookie on the mail topic (or the global).
The problem you're seeing is all mail via a scratchpad is treated as COSY
mail, so it does the compare against your CIX ID.
Unfortunately there's no quick fix, for scratchpads it *has* to use the
CIX message header structure, since there might be normal CIX messages in
it, and the author size in this structure is limited to a COSY user name
size (14), if I change this, it'll break any addon that uses it..
