Thank you very much for not only providing a solution but for your
extra effort to research the matter to find this solution, even though
you are not a kmail user.

I am constantly amazed by the knowledge, abilities, and helpfulness
of so many wonderful friends on the PLUG list.

While dozens of messages were exchanged on this subject, once
a solution comes forth (on many issues), it is often remarkably simple.

Thanks again, Kevin.
