i remember in some other cases (perhaps an earlier version of sqwebmail?) i have had the same problem as you that showed the filenames with .dat instead the right file extension... okay the whole filename is still wrong :-( sam, any idea what the problem could be? greets Martin -- Martin Kos Handy +41-76-384-93-33 http://kos.li/ ICQ# 13556143 Fax +49-89-244-323-681 Say NO to HTML in mail Proudly running Debian GNU/Linux.
