On Jan 02 Matt Mc_Carthy sez to Mike Christian:


MM> Hi Mike!  Happy New Year!
BAck at ya', Matt!


MM> My understanding of that ",t" in the outfile was 'save text 
MM> _only_'.
Well that's what I *thought*, but when I tried to print the message hre it
didn't print the header. However, I think that line in Msged.cfg (as
below):

MM> I use:  outfile   c:\matt\nt\a

is only for the file format of a saved file, not a printed file, no?


MM> That results in the complete message being saved with header.  Just

Hmm... doesn't do that here. Maybe that changed along the line (I'm using
version 4.20B2, 16 bit DOS  now).

Maybe Andrew can shed some light on this.
