Hi.
Could you provid me an exact dummy mail how it would look? I fear i'd do sth wrong., so i would like to see an example.
I haven't tested this, but you should be able to use something like this. Copy everything between the ---snip--- lines, including the blank lines, but NOT the snip lines themselves. The blank lines represent an empty body. [EMAIL PROTECTED] is a safe email address because example.net is a reserved domain (like 555 is a reserved area code in the USA phone system)

As far, i don't figure out how i should add it 3633 times?
Its fairly easy with the "vi" text editor. Open the file with
"vi FILENAME" at your unix prompt (without the quotes - but with the correct file name in place of FILENAME).
type "3633i" (without the quotes) to indicate that you want to repeat an insertion action 3633 times. Then paste your text, and then hit the escape key. Wait a while and your text will appear 3633 times. Now type ":wq" (without the quotes) to write (save) the file, then quit.
If you want to assure yourself that you've got the right number of entries, type "wc -l FILENAME" before and after you do the edit. You'll see the number of lines before and after the edit. It should increase by 8x3633= 29064
- Doesn't it take a bit long to do that? :-) Oh - And should i delete the mylist (not .mbox) directory before editing the .mbox?
Isn't there any "softer" way to do that..?
Sincerly yours, Ronny
