I just discovered I made a big mistake. To "Joe B...ski," I must issue a correction. Method three on my list for jury-rigging mail aliases should NOT read "mail /users1/aliases/staff/*" but SHOULD read either: 1. cd /users1/aliases/staff; mail * -OR- 2. mail `ls /users1/aliases/staff/*` Sorry about that. Good luck to you! I hope you find some letters of the alphabet to replace the three dots in "B...ski" someday. :-) ------------------------------------- Jeff Gustafson J-168, Academic Computing Services Sangamon State University Springfield, IL 62794-9243 "It's not a question of where he grips it; it's a simple matter of weight ratios: a five-ounce bird cannot carry a one-pound coconut." --- Monty Python (Holy Grail) -------------------------------------
