Ah, yes, I've looked at a few examples, and although *some* do mention the existence of an attachment, none that I could see actually identified it. In any case it would not be reliable enough to use. I wonder if there is an RFC in existence for something like this to be implemented in the mail transport protocol, things being the way they are these days...? I recall reading something about a smarter version of, or replacement for, SMTP, but for the life of me I can't remember where. -- HaywireMac Registered Linux user #282046 Homepage: nodex.sytes.net ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Mandrake HowTo's & More: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Life is a grand adventure -- or it is nothing. -- Helen Keller
