Hi all, I am just sending you a copy of a real digest mail that just came into my OE mail box. This has happened three maybe four times (how, I have no idea!). I got two copies - the first was my usual digest mail (no preview) and I had to look at the paper clip to see what the subject lines were on the attached messages. The second copy came in just like this - perfect (or Netscape perfect!). It is really weird that I would get a copy like this without doing anything. Anyone have any ideas why this might happen?

I don't know how it happened either, but I sure would like to. It's a lot of effort to open and then close numerous messages every day. My "mouse" would surely appreciate it, too! <;-) Eliz *************** From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2000 11:31 AM Hi all, I am just sending you a copy of a real digest mail that just came into my OE mail box.
