Okay, that's more than enough. :)

Yep, the new resource file was obviously applied to those messages.

The markup in those messages includes

    <!--X-User-Footer-->
    ...
    <!--X-User-Footer-End-->

which confirms that the MSGFOOT resource is included in the resource file.

When I looked at frames.mrc, I noticed that it already includes MSGFOOT:

    <MsgFoot>
    Partial thread listing:
    $TSLICE$
    </MsgFoot>

That makes me suspect that you include two occurrences of the MSGFOOT
resource in your resource file, while MHonArc is only able to store
one of them. You'd better edit the existing setting to your liking,
for instance like:

    <MsgFoot>
    Partial thread listing:
    $TSLICE$
    <hr>
    <ul>
    <li>From: $FROM$
    <li>Subject: $SUBJECTNA$
    <li>Date: $DATE$
    </ul>
    </MsgFoot>
