Checking the logs is much more >convenient :-) One of the things I learned in this list is to check the logs before I ask something. So I did. Unfortunately, for both of us, I found nothing. So I asked this list twice within a 3 week's period. Despite the sarcastic and ironic content of the above message, do you have an recommendations? And yes, since I do work as a Part-Time cook at a Greek and Italian restaurant, I'll offer everybody a free pizza, next time they are in the area. BTW, as a technical person myself, I do have the tendency to get upset when the same posting appears, but I also realize that there are people less computer/network/listserv illiterate and still try to help. The reason being that he will insist on asking. Anything to say? > Eric Spiros
