I remember some discuss about that topic just some days/weeks ago.
Followed it not close enough to give advise thought.

If I remember correctly, there are issues with 'leave messages on

Try searching the mailing list archives and bugzilla -- maybe you can at
least give additional info on bugzilla.ximian.com.
