Kat,

In your original post you mentioned you didn't like to modify the system
replylist 'because of the inherent dangers'.

Why can't you add at the start of your procedure a addrpyle for the message
and at the end of the procedure immediately  do a rmvrpyle ?

Since it's a nightly task and a specific message/reply, this can't be much
of a risk?

Luc
