I seem to recall that, though I think that's another problem that needs addressing in itself (I can't remember if it was). I could also imagine a novice user messing up their own files. But didn't think they'd be able to cause problems to the system or other users with their own. -- (This PC runs FC4, my others FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
