Many thanks, Alan, for your excellent reply.
I have learned today something which I didn't know yesterday, so today is
not wasted for me. I've now more knowledge than yesterday. :-)
This is a known proverb here.
But FYI, my e-mail in my current ISP (Kavosh.net) works only for internal
messages, I mean messages between administrator and customers. I have sent
several message to my account, but haven't received them. So I have to use
those free accounts all around the world.
Regards,
Mohammed
