Charles, There are plans to do this in 2.3+. Splitting messages into it's mime parts is trivial, even with the current database layout, but storing the same attachment once, even when received many times requires dropping the foreign key constraint between messageblks and physmessages. Currently messageblks belongs_to a single physmessage, but that would have to be replaced with a belongs_to_many. No rocket science, but not trivial either. -- ________________________________________________________________ Paul Stevens paul at nfg.nl NET FACILITIES GROUP GPG/PGP: 1024D/11F8CD31 The Netherlands________________________________http://www.nfg.nl
