Thanks Lester

the next stage was setting up the 'honeypot' account

i use ymail for that

and it was another endless dialog in tbird | preferences | account 
settings | add email account

untill i used yahoo's web mail which immediately asked me to change my 
pwd etc

when that was done, thunderbird stopped telling me 'maybe your username 
or password is wrong'

these misleading fail messages are really bad

someone will argue its all for safety

i remember once joking to a really paranoid friend

"dont worry, there really is a "them" but they know whats best"


well my email is back up and junk os flowing into the honeybucket :-)


what the heck was i doing 2 days ago when this all started?

oh yeah , 3-32 volt triggers on SSR's seems to really be 4.6V minimum

another 'truth' to be dealt with
