I sometimes need to redistribute multiple messages to the same person. I want to examine the messages first (to decide which to redistribute); so I don't want to use a .maildelivery file. 'Dist' will only take single files even when they are going to the same address. Is there some way I can redistribute messages (as with 'dist') without having to do it one message at a time? Thanks in advance.

Give it more than one message number on the command line. Two examples: forw 1 3 5 7 8 forw first:3 cur-last It'll copy all the messages into the body of the forwarded message, separated by lines like this: ------- Forwarded Messages ------- Message 2 ------- Message 3 Works great. --Jerry Peek, Northeast Parallel Architectures Center, Syracuse, NY jerryp@amax.npac.syr.edu +1 315 423-4120
