The sword swallower is tantamount to what happens to a subscriber : at the other end of the alimentary canal. Like the toss the ring at the : Coke bottle game, free news servers are rigged against the user and are : a cheat and a swindle. Thanks, Greg, I just can't figure out why OE messes things up like that every once in a while. Seems to be no rhyme or reason for it. It's like it looses all track of carriage returns or something. That message was formatted perfectly in the compose windo when I sent it. Maybe I'll download XNews and give it a try. I see you're no fan of free news servers. Neither am I. They're a joke.
