Well here's some good news: Outlook allows you to recall an email message that you sent to another Outlook user! This feature works only if the message you're trying to recall hasn't yet been opened by the receiver. You can choose to simply delete unread copies of the message, or you can replace unread copies of the message with a brand new message. You can also request to be notified whether the message recall was successful. Once you've selected the options you want, click OK, and Outlook attempts to recall the message you selected. Hmm, I wonder how one can abuse this? But wouldn't that be another nice feature for mutt? I believe this is only for within an intranet type network. I don't think it works for the Internet. -Ken -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]AIM: ScopusFest

Ralf, you should lock your screen while away from the computer. I can't believe you actually typed this :) Ok, the eclipse burned my brain, but this is actually the stupidest idea M$ EVER had, and so I thought I'd share my thoughts... -- Ralf Hildebrandt [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.stahl.bau.tu-bs.de/~hildeb If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.
