When I p)rint a message most of the header doesn't show up on paper. Only three lines are printed showing who last sent the message, ie, the From:, the Subject:, and the Date: lines. When I send articles by mail from my netnews host back to my home machine, the header actually contains lots of useful info about the author. Some of this is shown by default on the screen, and all of it can be viewed with the h)eaders command. But it's all lost from the printed version. Is there any way to print the entire message as it appears on the screen? Dave De Graaf, panda%dad@whgsu.att.com

The print command uses readmsg, which filters the headers. >Is there any way to print the entire message as it appears on the screen? Yup, the | command will only filter the top From line. -- ===================================================================== Sydney S. Weinstein, CDP, CCP Elm Coordinator Datacomp Systems, Inc.

You must admit - it would be nice to have an elmrc file parameter which would allow you to control/specify the readmsg options used to print mail with: # PRINTOPTS = Option string supplied to READMSG when printing mail PRINTOPTS = -h or some such variant. -- <=======================================================================> < Disclamer: My opinions are my own.
