Yes.  Actually a .clo file, but yes....

Unfortunately, this is not testing routing files thru a third party.  But it 
does tell me that squish is changing the path is the message.  I need to 
contact the other party to make sure the path is edited before squish is 
packing the message for sending, but I believe it is, since the message left on 
my system is edited on the subject line....  So, this isn't a complete test of 
file forwarding.....  But that may come shortly.....

[Ok, Bo....  When you received the netmail with the file attached, what was the 
subject line?  Just the file name?  Or was a full path specified?] 


Take care.....
