Well, not exactly ;-) If the mailing is to more than one recipient, then you will get that many copies. For example, EVERYONE will get 2 copies of this (with the possible exception of Craig, who will probably get 1 or 3 ;-) So, whenever you get 2 copies, check to see if the mail is sent to any other destination. If not, its a non-feature and probably should be mentioned. Otherwise, its a bu.. er, feature ;-) that will probably be with us for a while... > I could be wrong -- it's happened before! :) Yeah, but this time you win the cupie doll ;-) rc Rusty E.
