This is exactly what you do NOT want to do, and is why I brought up the fact that the Mail Database is not a text file. If you were to use Text Edit or any other text editor to break the mail database up into smaller files, you will find that none of them will be usable by Emailer any longer. Also, the danger to reading the mail database in a text editor is, if you accidentally change anything, and then save those changes, your entire Mail Database may be rendered useless (or possibly worse, Emailer will think it is ok for a while, and then later you will have strange untraceable problems that will make you think Emailer no longer works at all). Best bet, use the right tool for the job... that is, use Emailer to read the mail database. Resorting to using a text editor is fine, if you have no other alternative and you understand that once you go down that road, you may quickly and easily get yourself into a position where that mail database can no longer be used by Emailer. -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
