Ok, that makes sence, Most of the GSE files are because the spam email folder is continualy overflowing. Before installing Declude on last Friday an average mailbox was reciveing 200+ spam messages a day! Hence th need for Declude. I have a few problems at the moment, like Bellsouth.net emails being rejected due to poor email servers on their end.
I have asked the few bellsouth customers that have called and complained about their emails not makeing it to the recipiants to complaint to Bell South. Keith. Thatnks for the help. ----- Original Message ----- From: "R.
