If your wrap multiple messages, all are contained in "Content-Type: multipart/digest", so they are easily distinguishable from other attachments. Also doing it that way has the benefit of not modifying the original mails headers, which will happen if you remail/redirect them. Grüße, Sven. -- Sigmentation fault. Core dumped.
