This way I can write several letters back to >back and let send worry about delivery on it's own time. If you use a draftfolder you can have many outstanding drafts at any one time. Specifically, if you have just pushed a message (and the draft has not been renamed to #draft yet), your next message will be created with a different message number in your +drafts folder. It's a very nice facility available in non-ancient versions of MH. To use it I have added the following line to my .mh_profile: Draft-Folder: +drafts Good luck, -- jad -- John Dilley Hewlett-Packard Colorado Networks Division UX-mail: jad@cnd.hp.com Phone: (303) 229-2787 -- This is not an official statement of Hewlett-Packard Corp, and does not necessarily reflect the views of HP.
