Thanks. >Btw, please email me directly your answer. > The AOL mail handler normally formats the msg at read-time with the To: From: Subject: Date: lines first, followed by the msg text, followed by the full headers (separated by a line) Normally, when making a Reply or Fwd, the msg headers are deleted. However, the msg text is not usually quoted, so if the user wants to quote part/all of the msg in their reply, they must 'select' the msg, either with the mouse, or Ctrl+A (all) for it to be quoted. This is how the headers can get included in the new msg. The only solution is for the user to be careful to delete/edit out the copied headers from new outgoing msg. They have to look/read all the way to the bottom of their msg to do this. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Ben Parker .......... (Aurora, CO) ...........
