I wonder if there is a way to accomplish < either of these so people know when they are getting through. < Mike Meuser < UCSC, meuser@cats.ucsc.edu ----- End forwarded message Mike, and others, Your computer center should be able to assist you in how the system at your institution advises you if a mail message has been sent "ok" or not. As well, if a message is sent to the network as a whole, the sender should receive a copy of the message when everyone else receives a copy (as I will receive a copy of this message when it is sent to all users on SOCGRAD), this will notify the sender that the network received the message. On another note, I am relatively new to the network and don't recognize some of the institutional initials. I know our home institute is familiar to us but it may not be to others! Furthermore, some e-mail systems are set to eliminate headers so who you are and where you're from sometimes does not appear. If you know how to attach a Signature File to the bottom of your message this would be great, otherwise, simply type in your name and the institution you are at!
