Hi Will,

 WH> This got too long to quote so I'll amplify. First, I'm using the build
 WH> you reference.  I finally tracked down the mail list again the other
 WH> night (the web site link is busted) and got caught up.  You're right,
 WH> the build 1965 is rock solid.  There are newer dailies available but
 WH> I'm not in the mood for more beta testing right now.

  ... chomp... a lot of good stuff there ...

 WH> The only thing I would like to do is have each user access their mail
 WH> from their own drives so that cross-account security was better but I
 WH> haven't found anything besides running my own POP2/SMTP servers that
 WH> will do everything so this is the best solution I've found to date.

I have been toying with that concept myself, if only to provide a single point 
of "input" management, but setting different outbound Email addresses for each 
account may be tricky....

 WH> As for the decoding stuff, attachments are never decoded except by
 WH> explicit action on your part.  

Excellent!

 WH> I'm a text-only fanatic myself I never use html on outbound, 

SANP!

Likewise, I avoid HTML Email wherever possible. I have even managed to coerce 
Outlook to send plain text Email to most of my external contacts at work, and 
that brings looks of puzzelment from those around me, even though they work in 
the computer industry they can't possibly believe Bills S/W would do something 
to hurt them..........;-)

Cheers...............pk.
