Hi,
If you want double-checks, you can indicate this in the setup, go to the
test/primenet menu, here you can
indicate the type of work you want to do, this overrides the cpu setting. I
can see that your exponent
was reserved 2,4 days ago and expires in 85,6 days. After 88 days your
exponent expires, unless you contact the primenet server earlier. In your
case prime95 will try to connect to the primenet server after 28 days, then
extending the exponent(s) you are working on. You can also do this manually
when connected to the internet. (You can even indicate you want some 100
days by sending vacation information). You do not have to finish the
assignment within the 88 days. Your reservation has to be extended before
the exp column hits 0, and you could theoretically keep this assignment
forever.
Please do not start to format your text using outlook, many people will not
be able to read your mails anymore. (You can try to put under Tools /
options / Read / Fonts both the proportional and fixed font to courier new
(font size smaller). And you will see be able to format using fixed fonts
(and see the formatting others apply using a fixed font). This way the
message is still sent unformatted as plain text.)
Kind Regards, Martijn
