Thank you so much for the reply Satish ji. Infact everyday now I open the spam folder and give the order of NO SPAM to every letter of eflora, if it is in that folder. Because I thought that by any chance if the spam programme understands the authors name(????) No author of eflora should go in spam. And Dineshji it works(!!!!!). Mails going to spam are drasticlly reduced. Thank you so much for the advice. Gurucharanji I love eflora for all supporting and caring members. Bye Madhuri Sent from BlackBerry® on Airtel
