Hi :) I want to merge two mail files nicely, I don't care which is <br>appending to which. Can some jog my memory on how to do this simple
task?<br>Thank you very much... oh the files are 8mb and 3mb in size if that
matters.<br>Thanks again,<br>Eric<br>_______________________________________________<br>nflug mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:nflug@nflug.org" href="mailto:nflug@nflug.org">nflug@nflug.org</a><br><a href="http://www.nflug.org/mailman/listinfo/nflug" target="_blank">http://www.nflug.org/mailman/listinfo/nflug</a><br></div><br></div></div><br>
