I haven't found it to be a problem, but I use a file browser (Midnight Commander), so I don't have to do the quoting myself. I'm no procmail guru, but as I said, there's probably a short recipe that can do this conversion for you at the delivery stage. > And lets face it, space in > filename is a windows feature.

Only about 1000 characters follows the color scheme. As David said, this is probably an RFC issue. As in Outlook doesn't care about them. > Thank you for the help. No problems. > P.S. Sorry Joshua, I pressed r instead of L. That's OK. I've done it myself a few times, but have been lucky enough to catch it when I did (actualy, I hit 'f' more often, as it is the follow-up key in tin). -- Joshua 'bruce' Crawford ... http://www.geocities.com/mortarn All's well that ends.
