Egads!  So Outlook doesn't require the '%' symbol fix for virtual
servers?!  For whatever reason (and it has been a while since we first
tested and deployed IMail), I was under the impression that MOST mail
clients required the '%' format.  Funny how one small misconception can
snowball into so much wasted energy.

Well, given that Outlook is now the dominant mail client by a landslide,
I don't suppose we should continue to base our standard procedures on
the least common denominator.  I'll update our instructions and post
some FAQs for the Netscape and Eudora users.  This should result in far,
far fewer support requests.

Thank you all for your input.  I am VERY grateful.
