alright, this is a little off the subject, but can we all just call the mail clients what they're really called, please. i.e. outlook, not outhouse. This is really insecure..and i pity the unenlightened people that read the list archive looking for help to think "what the heck is outhouse? What's this person talking about??" And yes, there are lots of people that are that unelightened. --Tony .-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._.-._. Anthony J.
