It also offers to remove attachments from resends if there were any in the original post, which i find a useful reminder. (I usually don't notice them there, and resend them unintentionally otherwise.) You can click "Yes" (the default) or "No" to remove attachments on a message-by-message basis (as the script is run). -- Paul Berkowitz -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
