With 1.8b, you can add "Notebook-Headers= FULL". This function is also available in the VMS/unix/NT versions. >What is the advantage of using FULLhdr instead of IETFhdr? There's no advantage or disadvantage, it's just a matter of personal taste. FULL headers are compatible with the current default headers, they just have more information. IETF headers are not compatible and likely to confuse non-technical users. >BTW, I know IETF stands for Internet Engineering Task Force, but why >this abreviation was chosen to mean a specific type of header? A name had to be chosen, and most of the people lobbying for these headers were also quite vocal on the IETF list. Eric
