Thanks for the idea but these machines are sent out to various sites, many of which do not have any connection to the outside world. The application running on these machines requires accurate time which is why the system clock is periodically synched to the hardware clock, since it is more accurate in the absence of NTP. > also, if you do not mind, could you please disable sending 'text/html'. > i do not normally reply to 'text/html' as i have them sent to a separate > folder and do not check them often. some who follow tech support list > send 'text/html' to trash and never see 'text/html'. thanks. Argh, that's one of my pet hates too. I only signed up for this new gmail account yesterday and didn't realise it defaulted to html.
