Thanks. That looks better.
BTW, your original message arrived here in today's download.
I have had several occurrences of replies arriving before the original
message. What could be causing it?

Ah, yes, I see!
I assumed that the same command would be used for both.
My reasoning is that a remote ZIP file is downloaded to cache before it
can be processed and as such would be the same as a local file.
Apparently it ain't so....
And can you clear up one point for me?
In MIME.CFG there are a couple of items that specified twice. Usually
one of these is commented out.
If I remove the ";" at the beginning of the line, which one of the items
is used, the first one in the file or the last one?
