Is there any similar program on HP-UX? I wrote one a couple of years ago which handles either a single file or a directory tree. Also comes with some software to autosort your incoming mail. so, bob myers will send me mail, it gets sorted into folder "myers" and i get a message stating "new mail in myers". if i have a folder called tubes and the word tubes is in the subject line then the mail is stuck into that folder. the whole thing is available via anon ftp from rrivax.rri.uwo.ca. that number again is 129.100.7.2 daemons are waiting....... -- Lance R.
