Looks like you've got two different things going on: One is that %t is meaningless in this context, the other is that when you quote %s, it passes it through without performing the substitution. This seems like a bug, because escaping the quotes doesn't make it work either. It seems that it's only double-quotes that cause the non-substitution, try using only single quotes... -Mark -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
