JD> Packing from E:\Max\Msg\Fn_Net (501 msgs) ! 20 Oct 11:19:38 SQSH File 
JD> attach `D:\BT\In\I' does not exist! : 20 Oct 11:19:38 SQSH   Packed=1

JD> The sender's original netmail, on the subject line, was:  Subj : 
JD> I:\a_dir_here\filename.ext

Akk! Looks like it added the drive letter of the original message to your 
inbound directory..? I have never seen that happen before so I can't say what 
might help.

JD> You've got me moving in the right direction.  :)   Can you gimme 
JD> another shove?     please.

I wish I could but I'm at a loss now. The only suggestion I can give you is to 
use another netmail manager like net manager or CFRoute. I use CFRoute myself 
for some tasks that need further attention b/c some programs designed for 
dynamic (I guess) mailers don't always do what we'd like in a static mailer. 
CFRoute is a freeware program done by the Husky Project. Net manager is free 
now too.. since the author released a key generator.

It would be preferable if Squish would do this itself but.. if not there are 
other options. I recomend CFRoute if all else fails. I hope CFR doesn't also do 
as Squish does.. If you want to try it it can be found on Bob Juge's site www 
or ftp or telnet juge.com. The filename is CFR-A95B.ZIP.

Let us know how it works out, I'm interested to know if Squish can be made to 
do this or not..
