   Good to hear from you!   
      
   I concur.. The thing like 2:0/0 shouldn't have to happen. Winpoint has only   
   recently arisen from the ashes to be reworked. Hopefully Tim will focus on the   
   overlooked issues in netmail addressing.   
      
   I kinda wondered why wouldn't Zone0 be allowed. Afterall, it's just another   
   number. I imagined that a zone 0 could solve the diversity problem.  ;)
