Hi Debra, What a coincidence! Just after reading your message in the Digest I read an e-mail from a co-owner. He was showing me the DEMIME program that Nick Simicich has written in PERL for his Majordomo lists. It strips out anything headed towards his lists. Read about it at: http://scifi.squawk.com/demime.html While this more answers other problems than yours, at least Nick's a PERL expert. Don.
