To Louis: Thank you for your advice. I am currently using Pegasus. However
up to recently I was using Eudora and had less problems with it.

I also appreciate your compliment. However  when I engage in criticism
some people may take it personally. Generally speaking any criticisms I make
are made from a "professional" standpoint. I am not concerned with scoring
points. I try to adopt as politically a principled position as possible.


                                                   Yours etc.,
                                                                   Karl
