When I use "pick" on a large folder (1000+ messages), sometimes the line for the sequence in the .mh_sequences file gets so long, all MH programs fail complaining that the file is "poorly formatted". The solution is to simply remove the file and try pick on a smaller number of messages. However, I notice when I am running MH 6.7 on another machine (same model), I no longer have the problem. Where can I find the limit for line lengths in the code? I would just like to know what the limit is. Many thanks, Sean. ======================================= Sean Baker Data Management Resources 20725 South Western Avenue, Suite 100 Torrance, CA 90501 USA (213)618-9677
