It's a bug in the EMail software I just discovered. If you write
messages off-line as I do, and one doesn't get delievered when you
connect to send them, they all stay in the outbox even though some have
already been sent. The result is that when you amend the problem message
(in this case a mis-spelled EMail address) it resends everything!

Hi guys,

I usually get posts twice when OE5 does a wobbler and fails to acknowledge
reciept to my ISP.  Next time round it gets 'em again.

Alternatively if someone sends em to md-l and mduk I'll get 'em twice, the
md-l one with MD: in the subject.  Or if a peep replies direct to my mail and
also to the list I'll get it twice.  Of course some peeps insist on hitting "Send"
several times just to be sure...!

My inbox has 9447 messages just now, ne1 know how I can archive them
to a CD-R pls-- it's taking several seconds to open my inbox and I'd rather
not delete all your messages.

Cheers,

Severe bit variations on any parts of the sound where the output volume exceeded
-4dB, but quieter passages where volume stayed below -4dB were near perfect - a
few small variations due to jitter but nothing that would noticeably degrade the
sound. I used WAV files rather than MP3.

A. They merely mention the aleged high quality of the DAC (which is in fact
by far superior to the ultra crappy DACs found on their previous generation
cards, AWE32/64 etc.), for the purpose of playback through the analog output
of the card, not as a feature which has anything to do with digital
recording.

B. When in doubt, connect the digital output of the card to it's digital
input and play+record an mp3 file, then use winamp or whatever to decode the
original mp3 file into a standard linear PCM wav file and run a bit-by-bit
comparison of the recorded and the decoded wav files using one of many
shareware utils found on the net with that capability.

C. Do let us know if your finding are other than the expected (i.e. a
perfect match).
