OK. Now I understand the confusion. We use 'host' in a number of places where we really mean 'domain' and it can be particularly confusing for email addresses where the 'domain' may just have an MX record and not be a 'machine' at all. However, this terminology is deeply embedded and affects translations if it were to be changed, so I don't propose to actually change it at this point. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
