And sometimes the original post comes after some replies. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Clayton Macleod Sent: 25. mai 2005 07:59 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [hlds] HOLY CRAP WTF?! mind explaining why all/so many email/new clients start you off at the top then? heh.
