Please don't waste space in my inbox with your 5k-8k worth of a simple 50 character question wrapped in 5 to 10 kilobytes of html. I'm one of those to whom html is a waste of bandwidth & cpu resources to display. Yes, it has its place, but it sure isn't welcome on most mailing lists. Now, if my response was to have given a clear and concise amswer to your question (not bloodly likely, I'm way too verbose 99% of the time as this list knows very well, but that just me being an old fart), but you didn't see that response because I didn't jump thru the hoops to conform to your somewhat narrow view of how things 'should' work, then who is the ultimate loser? Me, for wasting the time to answer in the first place, or you, because you didn't get the reply, so your problem isn't fixed? Good question, that... Now, if the message somehow contains an advisory that you are using such a system, I wouldn't have bothered replying in the first place, and you still wouldn't have an answer. No net effect on you, but a large one for me, which probably means it will never come to pass. >-- > >David >Registered Linux User 383030 (since everyone else was doing it 8-) >-------------------------------------------------------------------- >--- There are only 10 kinds of people in this world, >those who understand binary, and those who don't. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
