No, the fresh install fixed the services problem, and the
services now start and we can run IMail admin, but the long
file name problem and the "-" in the user ID still are
unresolved. We will have to wait until Ipswich comes back
to work on Monday to try and get an answer. We sent a
message a 10 days ago to the email support but have not
heard anything back. Still waiting.

So all of the previous problems with long logins, etc were
solved? Just
wondering because we're soon be upgrading and want to know
what to expect.
