XFMail displays the sender of every message, i.e. the "From:" field, unless the sender is yourself when it displays the addressee instead, i.e. the "To:" field. This way you get more info: If the message is not "To:" someone else, then you know it's "To:" you and you see who it's "From:"; when it is "To:" someone else, then you know its "From:" you and you see who it's "To:". I think XFMail used to display "From:" for all messages by default, with the above being an alternative. It looks now as though it just does it. This doesn't bug any of us, since it's simply a matter of how XFMail displays the message list on your display. Hope this helps, Ted. -------------------------------------------------------------------- E-Mail: (Ted Harding) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 17-Mar-98 Time: 19:07:35 -------------------------------------------------------------------- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
