        Well, I gave up on using metasend with it's myriad switches 
        and tried from the cmdline.  Closer.  Still, no cigar.
        I typed "text/html" wheen it asked for "Content-type".
        That gave me the bold "test" from /tmp/test:



test

<html><body>
<b>test </b>
</body></html>

        (Actually, in evoluton it was "test *test*".)

        What I want is for non-GUI mailers like mutt and Mail to 
        seee 

        ^test

        and in the graphic/html mailers:

        *test*

        where the astarisks indicate a bold font.  I triied 
        "multipart/mixed" annd other things "multipart/<>",
        but it doesn't quite work... .

        I have seen the raw message source from the multipart 
        mail that many people sentf me.  I simply don't know how to
        recreate this.  --Things like:

Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="NextPart_Webmail_9m3uFooBarBaz

        Maybe metasend is smart enough to accept 
        "multipart/alternatve"; boundary="xyz"

        Otherwise, I'm stumped.

        gary
