	I'm looking for a database that I can use to store my e-mail
messages in. What I envision is a program that will strip all the extraneous
lines from a downloaded mail file, putting each message in a record but
keeping only the "from", "subject" and "date" lines (deleting the
sometimes ridiculously long chain of transfers for the messages).
It should store these and the message body itself as separate fields.
Of course I would like sorting by name, date, searches on subjects etc.
Display could be 1) like the usual unix "h" list,2) then if you double
click on a message a new window could open displaying the message. I
guess this is kind of like endnote's method of displaying a bibliography.

	Of course if I could send and receive mail from the Mac too...
I guess this is what UUPC is for.
	Such a nice display exists for Sun's I think....if it doesn't exist
for the Mac, I may write it....given the time...
