All,

How are "lost" messages handled?  Let's say a message is never received by
the brokerage firm, and they request a resend.  Will I have to handle the
request resend message (in fromApp/onMessage)?  Or will QuickFix
automagically resend the "lost" message?  Are the gapfill procedures
specified in the FIX Spec, implemented by QF, or is this the responsibility
of the implementor (read: my poor soul).  

thank you!
