Chris and Stuart have suggested a couple of simple options, however these will change the date and time of the message. The best option (IMHO) is to export the message as a Unix mailbox file and then edit it in a text editor and re-import the mailbox file. This can be automated with the use of a filter to export the email and then pass control to a batch file that calls your favourite editor and does the re-importing. Go to the Macro and Solutions library at http://cgi.silverstones.com/library.php and look for "Mssg & header editor". -- Robin Using The Bat! v3.95.6 Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Popfile v0.22.4 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.95.06 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
