When I get this now, it is always a server error. I then call my ISP. Note that I use Thunderbird for E-mail, not SeaMonkey. That is because I frequently switch browser profiles, and I do not want to switch mail-news profiles when I do that. Several versions of Thunderbird ago, Thunderbird would often "forget" my password. That has been corrected. I believe that the latest version of SeaMonkey and a few versions before this one contains the same correction. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/> Yes, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and other "founding fathers" owned slaves. However, they created a nation. Robert E. Lee, Jefferson Davis, Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson and other "heroes" of the Confederacy tried to tear the nation apart. Statues and other monuments to those "heroes" of the Confederacy actually celebrate traitors and treason.
