Ok Gerry you lost me, though being up all night with active x didn't help
either. What exactly is the bad idea, is it about the sub email
addresses? Let me clarify for you. My ISP has many email servers for
different plans: there is the original 'idirect.com' for the "main
accounts", 'idirect.ca' for their sub accounts, and now the 'look.ca' for
both the main and sub accounts. Though I'm likely mistaken as this is your
bag, right Gerry? I think I'll delve more into the headers again and start
sending message's between my addy's too.
