Gotcha there. % % Well, since it is not part of the message, I guess you cannot. But it's used for message information, no? It becomes the ^From: line, or at least so it appears. That's why it's so easy to fake and so on, too, but it looks like whatever is put there would show up in the header. % % -- % Regards % Cliff % :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
