   That is what I have been doing for the past 10 years & all of a sudden I see    
   an   
    error in the log files indicating a pssoble problem. A netmail arrived for   
   1:15/0 & mbse couldnt resolve it to the "proper" netmail area. First time I   
   noted a problem. I changed the netmail aka to 1:15/0 & havent seen a problem    
   in   
   the past week.

   Agreed. Thanks for the feedback though. It is nioce to validate possible   
   insanity from Alzhimers.
