    DS>   Does that work for whether it's incoming or outgoing??   
      
   Using the -d switch will not delete netmail on incoming. The batch file I use   
   runs sbbsecho twice, once for incoming and once for any posted messages made to   
   the board for outbound.  The 2nd instance doesn't use the -d switch but I did   
   notice it will not delete the netmail from the incoming... so I added a del   
   ../secure/*.msg.

   That's perfect.

   Mmmm... well, DM gave you a resolve for that issue.  If you need either the ZIP   
   or UNZIP, as they work perfectly here, let me know.
