I'd like to write a program to extract messages from a mail file according to several criterion (such as subject, author, etc) and put them in a seperate file. What this would be for is so that I could subscribe one account to network lists (such as this one..) and just make the resulting file public so people could SET FILE to it and read the messages. Seems much better than subscribing everybody, and more timely than ftp'ing archives... Anyways, any help would be highly appreciated. ============================================================================== Tim Russell "Domain lookup?
