That is all Dominique's fault - and the reason why I reacted a bit strict.

#1 he changed the thread subject - which resulted in what you describe
   up there. The correct thread is "FART PE on iBM TP driving users mad"
   and came over the list w/o errors at 15:01 cet today.
   Me idiot even reacted with his corrupted subject. My fault

#2 he changed the contents and did not at all respond to the subject and
   my questions.  That is a non-constructive behaviour that really drives
   me German mad sometimes. And I was (from my German view) really polite
   asking him to please stick to what the topic is.

Nevermind to you. Best regards.

Thanks for your input, Jane, but besides that you contributed nothing
to the subject yourself, consider this:

Why should other guys always be able to write me stuff like "RTFM" and
nobody complains about that. And I can't call those ignorants to actually 
read what I wrote and they even re-ask for the same stuff again. Sorry, but
that is inacceptable for me. And keep in mind how politely (from my
German view) I asked Dominique to stick to the topic. There was no
snipering at all. How come you think so?

I wrote:
> Please respond appropriately to what the question is instead of 
trying to change the subject. Thanks a lot.

So where's your problem with this polite demand? I did not shoot at all!

If that sounds different in English, I apologize, but guys, please
stop teaching me English instead of trying to help with the iBM-TP-
orientated stuff.

The persistant ignorance towards my actual question comes off only 
sounding "English-arrogant" - that is what *you* could tone down.

Thanks!
