I for one now *never* rely on email for important info.
Youre right. email reliability has dropped for me too this past year or so. But people dont help either. They expect you to receive mails they send and react accordingly when you dont reply! Per PS: Did my mail re VirtualBox arrive? I sent that about 24hrs ago, before reverting to my old email address. -- P _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
