The confusion is due to the interpretation of "forward". I assumed, in a discussion about Evo, that you meant "forwarded by Evo or some equivalent MUA", meaning there's in fact a new message (TO a personal address in this case) with the old message either inline or attached, whereas what you actually mean is "processed by a .forward file or similar". poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
