Indeed not. At least back in the days when I didn't know any better and used Nutscrape, I'm sure it had options to send HTML-only mail. Hotmailers tend to do that too on occasion and at least some people would consider that to be valid mail. For myself though, I consider anything that is HTML only to be obviously not important enough for me to read. It goes into the spam folder. I see little point in these super-whizzy anti-spam tools. procmail does the job just fine. OK, so I have to very occasionally update my .procmailrc, but that is rare indeed. Very little spam gets through to me inbox. -- David Cantrell | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.cantrell.org.uk/david If a job's worth doing, it's worth dieing for
