This list is about Perl? :-) [But yes, you both have valid points. I suspect it's more for regulatory oversight reasons that a bank is discouraging non-work-visible means of sending messages, than some organ-grinder management mentality that knowledge workers need to sit chained to their designated task 60 minutes of every hour] To atone for mentioning the 4 letter word (and quoting another mention of it), I should remind everyone that there is a social tomorrow at The Victoria, W2 2NH*) Nicholas Clark * Somewhere near Paddington, and convenient for the Central Line, so maybe we'll see some people from "a large West London Media Organisation", and other large enclaves of 4 letter word users from out west.
