   That's the last version by Folkert. And since you are using the Win32 version,   
   it should be easy to upgrade to the latest version by me! ;)   
      
   (It's more or less a drop in upgrade)

   As I said FMail only looks for kludges at the begining of lines. So I don't   
   think that what you saw had anything to do with FMail. I might try to test it   
   myself though. It should be easy to create some packet files for testing, that   
   have kludges in the middle of a line...   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
