The main reason I didn't just enter a bug for "Save as file" not including the headers is that it appeared in SaveMessagesToFile() that someone had made a deliberate decision to exclude the headers. As a result, I thought it would be better to open the issue for discussion first. My opinion is that saving the entire message, including headers, is the expected result of saving a message to a file. It disconcerted me quite a bit when I first tried it and didn't find _any_ header information at all in the resulting file. I had expected either full headers or at least something similar to the headers displayed in the preview pane. I do like the way multiple messages get saved in the order they are selected. Just today, I wanted to comment on several messages that had arrived out-of-order in one big response. Being able to control their order in the save file was nice. -- Mac :}) ** I normally forward private questions to the appropriate mail list. ** Ask Smarter: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.
