Simplest rules 1. If you're starting a new thread, start a new thread 2. If you have two concurrent threads which cover the same material, merge them together, but ensure you put in the subject either [MERGED] or (was ....) 3. As you've found, you need to wait before posting again! Bigger things, though not rules 1. Get an email client that wraps correctly! 2. Don't top post (i.e. putting the answer before the question). A lot of the time, the postings on mailing lists require technical/detailed information and trying to figure out what goes were is a pain and leads to confusing. I know of some who point blank refuse to reply to top-posts. 3. Be nice. Remember, just about everyone on here is donating time to make things better for everyone else (I've done it often enough from both sides), so unlike a telephone helpline, replies may be slow, but getting irate won't help. Hope that's useful. TTFN Paul -- "Your lives are in the hands of men no smarter than you or I, many of them incompetent boobs.
