Thanks to both of you - this is a new installation, not active yet so no
need to worry about old mail, etc. What we are doing is just doing it over.
Incidentally I think the docs should say pretty clearly that userid's cannot
be modified once created - it actually indicates in the program help file
that the userid _can_ be modified - it would have saved us a few hours had
we known......
