if all you want to do is move the mail from a non-NeXT account to a NeXT account, just mail the entire message to the NeXT account without touching the contents at all. if your NeXTmail message is contained in the file "foo.msg", you should be able to say: mail myAccount@myNeXT < foo.msg it would then show up as a regular NeXTmail message in myAccount's mailbox. when I get NeXTmail on my UNIX/X box at work, I tar the message file onto a floppy and take it home, where I then mail it to "me". what the previous poster described (a lot of uudecode, mv, tar, etc. commands) is only necessary if you want to read NeXTmail on a non-NeXT machine. --Russ
