    Could we have 2 message macros added to the core system?

    MSG.MSGSIZE = Size of message content only in bytes
    MSG.TOTALSIZE = Size of message content+attachment in bytes

    Thanks

    Both can be done in wcx with templates. No?

    Yes, I can do this and have already in a custom WCX I wrote to handle processing the template until I spke to you about it. I prefer to keep templates and WCX programs stock for beta purposes because customers see
    one thing and during beta I see the "stock" system as it operates.

    This gives me a way to test stuff as it should for you and then compare
    the results with what customers would see so I can make changes where
    needed.

    Just thought that since we had such a great webmail system, performing
    this calculation internally in the core system would be great for those offering simliar webmail type services to yahoo, netscape, etc.

    Just a thought :-)
