Many of the top post vs bottom post comments happen on the 5+ post on a thread when the size of the email becomes an issue. I have blindly replied in the past and was unable to understand my own email. Take a moment and trim out the messy bits. Use a (snip) or <snip> to note huge missing areas. As you will note in Don's post there is a history to the argument. Also note Don's multiple signatures which I think he will review after he sees it in action. :) Above all, be polite... ~~~ Andrew "lathama" Latham [email protected] ~~~ -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
