Ahh .. neato ! earlier I had : mailboxes `find ~/Email -maxdepth 1 -type f ! -name sent-mail ! -name postponed -printf "%p "` But, that becomes way too tedious as the list increases.

Yes, xargs just echoes them one-by-one, I guess. pv. -- Prahlad Vaidyanathan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> What, me worry ? http://www.symonds.net/~prahladv/ Don't Panic ! --
