i definitely would like to have an archiving system, and if one can be used/created that sorts data better (especially by date) it would be great. as always, i am happy to host anything needed to support this group. (i can not design/code anything though).

The current archiving system is used, well, because it was there when I took the project over and I never thought to even look at it. Obviously I do not use it, but if there is a better alternative (even if it's not externally hosted like the current one is) then I'm open for suggestions. I'd like to see a show of virtual hands of the people that like/dislike it. I'll try and get a survey set up tonight for those who wish to participate to give their opinion. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.
