Thanks for chipping in Drew. As a matter of fact,if one follows the
thrread Fajar provided "to the bitter end" (hm, why do I suddenly
crave a pint...:-), there is a rather long blurb by a MailScanner user

My main gripe here is that it is a bit pointless to do, at all... But
it is possible, of course:-).
