You misunderstand what I am asking for. I have attached the file
Raw_email.txt to this post. That file contains the raw message to
which I am replying (the list post from you). This is the equivalent
of what I would like to see from one of your garbled messages.
You appear to be using Lotus Notes as your mailer. If I could, I would
tell you how to get what I want to see, but I have no idea how to do
this with Lotus Notes.
