The ideal way to test a mail is attaching one, a very small one, to a
posting like i have done here. To test the attachment, close SM, copy
the file html3 to the directory where your Inbox resides and start SM.
You should see now a folder with the name html3 in the mail account of
your SM which contains the test mail.

Too much can go wrong when creating the attachment, so please follow the
next instructions carefully.

- You must have a html test mail in the Inbox of your mail account.
- Using SM, create there a new folder with e.g. the name html.
- Using SM, copy the test mail to the new folder html.
- Verify using SM, that the test mail in the new folder shows the
  problem.
- Close SM. Don't open SM again unless told otherwise.
- Create a new folder with e.g. the name html-test on your machine.
- Copy the file html, which represents the folder html created under
  SM, from your profile to html-test.
- Copy the file html to the file html2.
- Edit html2 by removing unnecessary parts and changing private bits.
  You may look into my attachment to see, what can be done.
- Copy html2 to the profile of you SM. To the same directory where
  Inbox and the file html resides.
- Start SM. There should now be a new folder with the name html2.
- Verify with SM, that the test mail in html2 shows the problem.
- Reply to my posting with the attached file html2.

Some may complain, that attachments in a news group are evil. I don't
think so, if they are short and justified by preventing problems.
