THANK YOU, THOMAS!

It has a lot of Latin words in it, but in no way did they make any sense.

I had never heard of the Lorem Ipsum before. So I've learned something and increased my knowledge.

At my age, now that I've learned something for the day, I think I can probably go back to bed. <g>

this i no language -
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Adobe PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Betreff: Re: [VFB] test message

There was an interesting reason behind Neville's test message. All of his messages to VFB were being labelled as "suspected spam" by his ISP, Shaw.Ca. But no other messages.

Neville contacted Shaw. They said it was because someone at VFB had labelled one of his messages as Spam and there was nothing they could do about it.

I didn't know what to do, but after mucking around a while in the VFB management fields, I found a tab that said "reset". So I reset Nev's account, not knowing whether I had fixed it or kicked him off forever.

So he sent the test message to see if it was labelled "spam". It wasn't. For a change, something worked.

How many of you were able to read his message. For that matter, were there any of you who did not recognize the language?

It was interesting - I couldn't translate it, even having studied the language for two years (okay, it was more than a few weeks ago!). But even more interesting, I ran it through Google's translator program. It was only able to translate maybe a third of it.
Even it didn't recognize some words that I did.

Now we need Neville to send us the translation. :-)
