I envision the following: In my systems 'sys' file, I set up for batching. This means that I will get a list in a file by the name of the system I am interested in normally forwarding a news feed to. But, instead, I don't run sendbatch on that account, simply *this* program which reads in the list of articles, and proceeds to 'email' each one to a given user on another system. Ideally, the 'subject' line would be parsed, and given to the mail system as a subject, or the program would actually be a MTA without invoking the local bin/mail program. That way, all the headers in the 'news' item would be available to the remote system's Mail user interface. Does anything like this already exist, or do I have to write it??? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou, Mike Levin
