Thanks for the info.

In this case, I would like to recommend that in the future versions,
that the confirmation messages show some reference to the cookie
number. I am a owner that does not have access to the logs and have no
way to see if a confirmation matches any of the cookies. I
occasionally am not sure if I have ok'ed a message. If I could match
the confirmation numbers with the approval required cookie, it would
solve this problem.

Thanks again.
