Warning!
Glenn, these measures may seem appropriate to you, but they are far
from being secure. If you happen to use Pegasus for DOS (Pmail) every
file with an incoming message will be automatically renamed from .CNM
to .CNR as soon as you have read it. So in order to prevent unwanted
overwriting I would suggest to start the renaming from .CNS: CNS,
CNT, CNU, CNV, CNW... That means the digest I quoted from would be
called COA. Right?
