What can I expect I am forced to use Comcast. I thought I had all of my mail programs delivering to my gmail email address. I guess I missed one of them. I will toy around with what you mentioned and thanks for replying to my questions. -- Thanks in Advance... http://weconsultants.prophp.org IchBin, Philadelphia, Pa, USA http://ichbinquotations.awardspace.com ______________________________________________________________________ 'If there is one, Knowledge is the "Fountain of Youth"' -William E.
