> When I tried to register Open Office 3.1, it kindly informed me that > my e-mail address was invalid. Sorry, I have had this address for > years. Just because it has a hypen it it doesn't make it invalid. > Been there too. Some agressive email pattern matching wont allow anyone from new zealand to register with a .maori.nz address. The best pattern matching to employ is a loose one where you look for an "@" and thats it. Then get anything that is spat out to go to a human for deciphering. Often the address mistakenly has a space, a comma instead of a period and can be recovered. The best solution for you is to open a Gmail account and use that. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
