Yep.  

 JD>> The .pkt left out the path in the subject line.  Just the
 JD>> filename was there.

 JD>> Whatever that other file was that FD created... that contained
 JD>> the whole path to the attached file.

 ml> correct on both accounts... and when the PKT and the file were sent,

 ml> FD scans the outbound directory... it would be analagous to a ?LO 
 ml> file in very loose terms...

Seems to be.   :)
