One feature that was suggested to me by a friend (Denise Fishburne, for the record) is the ability to refuse mail before reading it. We'd like to be able to delete the message and send a message back to the sender saying "This mail was received and refused by the addressee", meaning that we got it but never read it, and sent it back. In the days of flames and junk e-mail, this function would be quite useful. Mark -- Mark Smith (alias Smitty) "Be careful when looking into the distance, RPO 1604; P.O.
