That is interesting. I can believe it between my two correspondents; but the email I quoted was to a list with very strict rules on html email.
Here is part of that full header of that email: Message-id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIME-version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v552) X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.552) Content-type: multipart/alternative; boundary=Apple-Mail-2-949890648 and here is one from the person who never does the echo: Message-id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIME-version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v551) X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.551) Content-type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Midi Michael caused electrons to hula in cyberspace with: >My guess is that they have it set to send HTML or Rich Text Format mail >which often sends two versions of the email: RTF version and a text >version for folks who have email clients that don't do HTML/RTF mail or >in which they turn off HTML mail. Something in the formatting, some >command or line PowerMail expects to see to format properly, shows both >versions instead of showing just one. I receive other mail which shows me >text with the HTML/RTF version hidden/attached as is supposed to be done, >so I put the blame on Mail.
