Hello, Ralf, & Mark,. We running now, thanks for the help.
I will send out on my large list over the w/e (splitting the membership just in case) and will report how the throttle patch performed. But on a small list we are up, up, & away. I'll look at verp next, don't want to have to tweak anything else so if it's a standalone item to tick on/off as it were, then I'll do that. Lots of nice questions on your list, with nicer answers. no rtfm all the time.
