Or, does the origin not matter in this case Jason> since I used `O h' to save? There is two kinds of data in an nnml or nnmh group or an MH folder. (1) The messages themselves. (2) Other data. (1) is the same in all three formats. (2) is different. In fact, for an MH folder, (2) is empty, i.e. there is no other data. Therefore, you can use MH tools to read any one of these three formats but you can't use them to write all of them. kai -- A large number of young women don't trust men with beards. (BFBS Radio)
