The biggest 1500va, about 2 years old, & probably about due for its 2nd battery pack.

Oh fudge. kmail WILL do that automaticly, replying to the list only, if you do not set a replyto: header. Your setting one means I have to reply all, which when I forget and do it with most mailing lists, means both the list and the OP get a copy & I get dinged about it. Life is simpler without the replyto: header. Thanks Charles. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
