Volker When doing the above, formail generates but one ^From_ entry, From_ foo@bar. I have done the following: Using sed, changed the address format from [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] (which is the way Outlook left it) to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. I run the output of this though formail and, no matter what options I try, it will only generate a From_ entry for the first mail message. The rest of the messages are unaffected. man formail recommends formail -ds old_mailbox new_mailbox. This does not work. Any suggestions -- John P. Verel Living Proof That Low Tech Beats High Tech!
