Moreover, if I hit return to break the line, before the e-mail is sent it gets justified to 80 columns and gets all truncated. 2- When I use the external editor (xedit) to write or edit big messages the programs kind of freezes when the message is sent. The cursor turns into the little watch and I have to kill the process to get rid of the program. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Or does anyone know any other e-mail program for X? I'd like to use something that has more visual appeal than elm or pine. thanks for any suggestions or help. -- -- Ivan Lima Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science Division of Marine Biology and Fisheries ivan@nauplius.rsmas.miami.edu http://nauplius.rsmas.miami.edu/homepage/home.html --
