AI>>> I'm pretty sure I've seen fully qualified paths from messages
 AI>>> from FD/IM. It could be that the person who sent it used a FQP
 AI>>> when they wrote the message??

 ml>> those are/were old versions of FD... newer versions do not leave the
 ml>> path in the subject line... at least, not from what i remember...

 JD> I should have clarified my original a bit more.

 JD> I tested with
 JD>   FD       EXE     53097   3-02-94  2:12a
 JD>   FM       EXE     30742   3-02-94  2:12a

right, sorry...

 JD> Upon writing a new netmail w/file attached with FM, and
 JD> returning to FD, FD immediately created a .pkt and another
 JD> file.

correct... one was the actual PKT to send and the other is a datafile with
details on what files go to what system...

 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.

correct on both accounts... and when the PKT and the file were sent, the
other file was simply deleted... IIRC, this file is created when FD scans
the outbound directory... it would be analagous to a ?LO file in very loose
terms...
