Is there anyway to add a stop loading button to the bar for the current message? Some of these html messages which have graphics hang exmh while it waits for the graphics file. Another possibility would be to set a timeout threshold somewhere. Dale Alspach

Um... there already is a "stop" button that comes up when a message takes a long time to display. > Another possibility would be to set a timeout > threshold somewhere. Good idea! If you code it up be sure to post it here! --Hal

Set exmh to use an HTTP proxy which doesn't exist (eg something on localhost). That way the requests are rejected almost immediately. -- -- J C Lawrence ---------(*) Satan, oscillate my metallic sonatas. claw <at> kanga.nu He lived as a devil, eh? http://www.kanga.nu/~claw/ Evil is a name of a foeman, as I live.

That way the requests are rejected almost immediately. By all means. If what you want, Dale, is to NOT see the graphics, this is a hack to do that. --Hal

Using the "invalid proxy hack" will stop exmh from fetching anything that's not in the message. [mumbles to self in confusion] Seems like there are other things it would block... --Hal

That would get around a, uh, bug I ran across some time back where, even though "Enable display of in-line images" was set to "no", if someone sent an html section with frames, they would still load. So, the "invalid proxy hack" should "fix" that problem... -d
