Thanks, but --- I think I prefer "set edit_headers=yes". Before your earlier email I had been unaware of this option. It allows me to review the whole email at once, prior to sending. It doesn't bother me at all that I can't edit some of the headers that I see. If I discover a header that I really, really don't like, I know that I can abort sending the email. If I notice a header that I don't understand why it is there, I can investigate. In general, I feel I am better off with this than I would be if I were using what I asked for. -- Paul E Condon pecon...@mesanetworks.net
