I am wondering if this isn't the normal behavior. I send some things out via Outlook Express. I watch the sent box and nothing appears immediately, it all takes a few second. The difference is there is no clock to watch. I would guess that even with email programs where the email seems to go immediately (The Bat does this too), it is still taking a few seconds to get "out the door" -- Rick It is a good rule in life never to apologize. The right sort of people do not want apologies, and the wrong sort take a mean advantage of them. - P. G.
