Attachments don't work well with digests, which is the primary reason I don't allow them, based on the kind of list I run, of course -) If they are binary attachments, the user can attempt to look at the raw message source, manually extract the attachment and save to a separate file and then use something like MUPACK or winzip to extract the file. If it is multi-mime enoded forwards, pretty much just read the raw email then. Randy
