It sounds like your mail program is replacing or adding a 'From:' and 'Subject:' header instead of or above the ones from the original message. On September 22, on [log in to unmask], Stephen C.

I know of a mail package that will allow you to do this (at least up to LISTSERV 1.8c; that's the version running on my lists' host system). It's called 'vm,' it's written in lisp, and runs from within an Emacs session. Which means that it will only help you if you are running on a UNIX platform. Unless some one knows of a up-to-date version of Emacs that runs on a Windows platform (I'd be -very- interested if you know of such a version). VM is not easy for the novice to use. In vm you have considerable control over the message and its headers when resending. This has been my mail program of choice for more than 6 years. And I have had no problems resending messages which I have edited to remove HTML markup or attachments - either messages sent to me directly or messages that need approval (by the resent method). FYI: I NEVER edit the content of a message. I just remove mailer-generated extraneous stuff such as HTML markup attachments or other attachments. Attachments are against my list's posting rules. -Debbie Douglass .---------------------------------------------------------------------. | No flames were thrown in the creation of this email message. | |--------------------------------.------------------------------------| [log in to unmask] \ May your sword always be within | |Systems Administrator \ reach and may your Foe's skill | |GTE Government Systems, Needham, MA\ and luck be less than your own.| `------------------------------------`--------------------------------'
