   I see. I take it Win98se is the last license you bought for Windows? I could   
   only imagine the insecurities and vulnerabilities they've fixed since then. ;)

   From 2005 meaning never updated? Or have you been maintaining since then?

   Ahh ok. I've only setup CMII for testing purposes, but never actually put it   
   into use.

   As far as I can tell there's still quite a bit of work being done. At this   
   point I think it's just service packs for minor fixes until Nick can do some   
   major changes (ie: I guess v4.0 has a Linux flavor in the works).

   What looks wierd about the BSO? Is it because it's 5D outbound directory   
   naming whereas most of us are used to only 4D?   
      
   JAMNNTPd - There I mentioned it so we're still on topic. I don't know what the   
   strictness level is on this echo as far as that. If we need to move echos to   
   keep the discussion going let me know.   
      
   At this point in time we should just be grateful someone is saying *something*   
   somewhere. ;)   
      
   Regards,
