Hi, I am using smartlist with a moderator and it is working fine but I've got a problem when I approve a message containing attachment. It seems that it does not recognize my approvement and send it back to me instead of diffusing it. Have you got an idea about this problem ?? Thanks.

In the header or in the body? If you add it in the body, then, in the presence of an attachment, it will not be at the *beginning* of the *body* (where SmartList expects it), but at the beginning of the first body part. I.e., there will be the header of the first MIME part before it. A MIME message with several parts looks like this: Mail header (with To:, Subject:, Date:, etc.) empty line MIME separator MIME header of first component empty line body of first MIME component MIME separator MIME header of second component empty line body of second MIME component ... MIME separator In this context, you add the Approved: line after the second "empty line", but SmartList expects it either in the header or after the first empty line. Try adding it to the header (no, I do not know how to do this with Netscape; sorry).

And what about adding it to the header with Outlook ? Do you know how to do it ?

I am rarely using Outlook either, I most of the time read and write my mails using XEmacs's "VM mode". However, when I tried to configure an auto-reply for my Outlook mailbox this week (telling mail partners "please use my other mailbox, Outlook mangles your mail when forwarding", arrgh), I found a possibility to create a sort of template for e-mails (it was a German version of Outlook, so I do not know the term used in the English version). You could select there which mail headers to include (From:, To:, Reply-To: etc); maybe you can also create a custom header line.
