Abstract
We discuss the derivation of master equations in the presence of initial correlations with the reservoir. In van Hove's limit, the total system behaves as if it started from a factorized initial condition. A proper choice of Nakajima-Zwanzig's projection operator is crucial and the reservoir should be endowed with the mixing property.
