it /is/ netmail... that's why it is in a MSG file in his netmail directory...
when it is packed up for sending, it is placed in a PKT...

the above mentioned PKT can be a ?UT file if that's how the system wants to
handle it... no ?LO files are needed for ?UT files... the ?UT would be named in
the BSO format and placed in the proper outbound directory for the destination
zone...

on the other hand, if the file is a PKT, then a ?LO file is needed to point to
it... that ?LO file will be named in the BSO format and placed in the proper
outbound directory for the destination zone...

two ways to skin the same cat :)

BM> My apologies...

no need to apologise...
