Ahhh! I already have the version of YARNUTILS (files dated 10/95) -
I use EDITFOLD on a regular basis to get rid of multiple levels of
indentation that occurs when an email gets forwarded and forwarded and
forwarded, etc. (along with extraneous mail headers), etc.

That's the sort of thing I'm looking for - MultiMail. Oops, just did a
www.google.com search for MultiMail and came up with mail sync software
for a Palm PDA. That's probably useful, but not what I'm interested
in that right now. It looks like I need to do some looking - ah here
it is at www.clark.net (/~wmcbrine/multimail.html)! Looks like it has
a lot of potential!
Thanks much!
