Edit the message as you would any message. 3. Do NOT send the message, instead save the message in your Outbox as follows: 3.1 Close AND Save the message. 5. Delete the original unedited message from your Inbox. 6. Move the redirected, edited message from your Outbox to your archive folder.

Re: Long line

I'm not sure what Utilities could do it. Basic opposite of ALT L I guess. Only manually, by going to the end of the first line, deleting the end of line, going to the end of the line, deleting, etc. What good does it do? -- Groetjes, Roelof Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

LDAP Data Interchange Format, for more info see: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2849.txt, I found this link by googling "what is ldif" (that was including the quotation marks) BTW Your signature delimiter doesn't seem to work. It ought to consist of dash, dash, space, enter.
