> so .eml and .msg files are identical? I say so based on empirical evidence (and not any formal documentation).
I exported a small text-only TheBat message (with no attachments) as both types of files, and then I also exported a TheBat message with several attachments as both types. Running a binary comparison on each pair of files showed that the two small *.EML and *.MSG files were identical with each other, and the two large *.EML and *.MSG files were identical with each other. Of course, it would be a rather large (and risky) extrapolation to claim that this is true under all situations (which is why I said "appear as" in my original reply). Therefore, as you have said, it's a good idea to save as both types of files, and such "paranoia" might be good insurance. :-) -- Fred Using TheBat V.4.2.44.2 for POP3 mail with Windows 7 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 6.1.8 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
