I left IBM in 1971 after working there three years. It was a great first job and I left on wonderful terms, was invited to return after getting real-world (that is, customer) experience. Three years, of course, meant that IBM's pension plan/benefits weren't relevant to me. I got plenty of

An antiphon, yes. But it's my perception that one is a happy troll and the other is not so much a troll as one who simply cannot resist one-upping. I've been like that, in my quarrelsome youth. Some would say I've not changed as much as I like to think. --- Bob Bridges,

Hm, I have Outlook set up so emails that come from IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU are routed automatically to the IBM-MAIN folder. I'm not sure, therefore, that the normal rules I can set up will recognize emails from . Although I imagine I could write a VBA function that'll do it, but that
