What filesystems do not support the characters appearing in valid message IDs? As a temporary measure, you could use a CGI program that took the message ID as a parameter, and retrieved the appropriate filename using the information from .mhonarc.db. That would resolve the problem of invalid filenames by giving you a persistent method for retrieving messages independent of the filename. -Eugene -- +=== Eugene Eric Kim ===== [EMAIL PROTECTED] ===== http://www.eekim.com/ ===+ | "Writer's block is a fancy term made up by whiners so they | +===== can have an excuse to drink alcohol." --Steve Martin ===========+
