But I am curious as to how it would save bandwidth if the whole mail has to be read, converted if necessary, and only then the converted message downloaded. I would also be interested to know how the mail client could convert the message without downloading it to begin with. -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat!
