ok. no problem.

I usually do not forward with the headers,  or foward to the right persons, 
but i thought that may be was a nice thing for the people that foward _any_ 
mail (joke or craps like that ) (and start pushig email addreesses in the 
mail) so at least fowarding this way they not expose the other recipients. ( 
i guess that only windows users do that). Here it was known of a way to make 
emails db: Some one sends an alert or promotion message, and unskilled users
foward the message to all the their contacts without removing at least the 
headers. At the end, some one send the mail again to the author 
of the first mail and the "circle is complete": he has gather a lot of email 
addresses.  

I think i saw the feature in recent Outlook. (not saying that outlook is a 
nice thing). Some one sended this alert mails and said:
  ----- Original Message ----- 
  From: Matias Anselmo  
  To: Mister July.- ; Martin Javier ; Magdalena Castro ; [SNIPED]  
(no idea if it impose you the strip or if it lets you choose)

Yes i think in that, but there weren't any comments...

ps. The dependecies of kmmessage.h are badly set? after i was changing 
kmmessage.h   if i type "make" no .o is build again. Is you don't make clean 
all the .o links and the program crash. (becouse i was adding a new member)
