But the duplicate thing is not appropriate for me since I want to weed duplicates only in any one output folder. That is a message that is crossmailed to me personally must go to me personally and also go into the list-folder where it belongs. So I'd need output- folder based weeding. regards -Gunther -- Gunther Schadow, M.D., Ph.D. gschadow@regenstrief.org Medical Information Scientist Regenstrief Institute for Health Care Adjunct Assistent Professor Indiana University School of Medicine tel:1(317)630-7960 http://aurora.regenstrief.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
