My irrational problem is that I find it incredibly frustrating to contemplate sending or receiving information through snail-mail (farting about with stamps and envelopes, etc. It seems a bit luddite), when the people who I'm communicating with are on the net. For people whose only means of written communication is via traditional post, fine, no worries. you'll be giving them a good service. I'm obviously a fool for thinking this way because so many others around here think it's such a good idea. Dave
