 +MUTIL can also execute specific functions from the command line if they are not enabled in the .ini file.  This
 +is done by using the -RUN or -EXEC or -EXECUTE option (they all do the same thing) followed by a comma separated
 +list of headers that should be executed.  
 +
 +If you are using a non-default .ini file then you mustr specify the execute command before the ini filename.  For example:
 +
 +  mutil -run PackMessageBases           (Run [PackMessageBases] from mutil.ini)
 +  mutil -run PackMessageBases pack.ini  (Run [PackMessageBases] from pack.ini)
 +
 +An example of calling multiple headers from the command line:
 +
 +  mutil -exec ImportEchoMail,LinkMessages

 +Following next is a cache setting which if set to TRUE (*HIGHLY* recommended for MUTIL) then MUTIL  will write the log file in increments of 8KB at a time.  If set to FALSE it will write each individual line as it is logged.  This will significantly reduce MUTIL performance if set to FALSE.
