I agree with you on that one. When reading on a blackberry, it will only download the first section and frequently I never get to see the reply because it fails to get the rest of the message. I have got into the habit of just deleting without trying to get the rest if the message size limit appears before the reply. I find it ironic that the majority of 'non-snippers' usually access using a mobile connection! And " ... It's like being in a different pub in a different town, every night. " Stick with it and take part, then it becomes like being in the same friendly local every night, with all the associated banter etc. that you would expect to find there. A bit like amateur radio I suppose, less fun if you just listen but much better if you actively take part. We all started as newbies on this list once, it soon becomes a second home. Ask those questions you have in the back of your mind about the prospect of getting afloat and see the response it gets? Graham www.jannock.org.uk
