OK, Antonio...
First off, that's what this list does...sorry about it, but hey, that's life. You can
be
an ostrich and stick your head in the sand, but life is still going to go on...you
might end up with something shoved up your behind, but life goes on.
Second, if you are going to keep using Windows 9X, then please, do the rest
of us list members a favor and GET AN EMAIL CLIENT BESIDES OUTLOOK
EXPRESS! Try FoxMail...it's free, smaller, faster...and you can setup your own
filters, then if a message from Arachne list comes to your inbox, you filter can
move it to some other place, which you designate. Don't blame the list members
for YOUR lack of knowledge. Heck, even Lookout Extreme (Outlook Express)
can be setup to place mail from certain addresses into various folders...read
the help files. I for one DO NOT want my ISP looking through my personal email
for me...I am perfectly capable. As for others doing "list members a favor"...
since we have heard from a total of, let's count them all up now.....one....hmmm,
that's all??? Just one??? Let the satire continue. Learn how to do email before
you make requests such as that. This list is ALIVE because many of us have
awakened to reality and "DELTREE C:\WINDOWS"
Death to Windows...long live alternative operating systems and browsers!
Oh, and leave my tag line alone, OK? That's been my calling card for, oh, let's
see now...21 years...besides, you messed up the capitalization.
C U L8R!

ps...this reply is meant to be FUN...not serious...if I wanted serious, heck,
I'd just stay at work 24-7-365!
