Steve, Your problem is that the NOTEBOOKs for the MAILBOOK list at DEARN and EB0UB011 are private to the list membership (actually, at EB0UB011, they're only available to the list owners). The only other source of MAILBOOK NOTEBOOKs is at UGA, which also happens to be on your home continent, so the international links don't have to carry your database traffic. UGA has them as public access, so give it a crack there. Ross Patterson Rutgers University
