Thanks for this tip - I hadn't seen it in the documentation, but it's a good addition to my setup. > Hope this helps! Yep - all is well thanks to your advice. I think the problem with the www. is something that should be fixed or documented, as it (silently) does not behave as expected. > Rick Matthews mike.
