All you have to do is RE-Filter the folder with the attachments! I use an 'overflow' temporary folder to hold all the messages in, so that all of them are 'detached' to the separate folder. The original filter has already been modified to reflect the new destination folder. After re-filtering, I then rename the folder back to the original name (a two step process) by deleting the original folder which is now EMPTY, then renaming the temp folder back to the original name. It has worked every time for me. Never lost ONE attachment. -- Warmest tropical wishes, Spike 5 out of 4 people don't understand fractions /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign - Against HTML Mail \ / If it aint a webpage it shouldn't be HTML.
