Humm, the reply didn't attach the message, its your basic C&D order from an outfit that claims to be Pavillian Software, who claims to have bought StarOffice from Sun. Unforch, the grammer and punctuation use is worse than mine, which is your basic 8th grade in 1949 version.

We are deeming the sale illegal. We own the exclusve usa and canadian rights to staroffice. I demand that you immediately cease the use and distribution of all infringing works deriving from staroffice as of today, or I shall take further action against you, and sun mirosystems. Regards Geoffrey Callaghan Pavillion Software ------------- He has no concept of proper capitalization and as you can see, the spelling isn't great either. Personally, I think its a troll. But its strong enough to warrant a counter suit for false advertising and defamation of character. Scott M. may be guilty of several things, but outright stupidity isn't one of them IMO. -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules.
