Skippy, FYI, Windows Live Mail is no good
for Usenet. It doesn't know how to attribute
nor does it know how to trim sigs. You should
download a fee copy of XNews or some other simple
but real news client if you care about your readers
and in accurate attribution.

If you're going to partake in Usenet you should
endeavor to do so properly for the sake of your
readers and for the sake of your reputation.

How can anybody be taken seriously who ignores
the rules of the game?

I intensely dislike WLM, attribution marks being only one of my peeves.

However, I have archives of this and my emails back to 1995, all one form or
another of *.eml.

Years ago I made a mistake in trying out Thunderbird or whatever it is that
Mozilla calls their client; I was unable to retrieve my mails back into this
format. Thus I'm reluctant to leave it.

If you have a translation program which would assure my ready retrieval (I
use search within the program to find stuff I know I have but not where it
is) of stuff from the past, without any loss of the thousands of archived
mails I have, I'm all ears.

As to my reputation, it's already worthless, so I'm not so much worried as
amused :{))

We hope to return to the Bahamas after a reunion of my national championship
crew (rowing) in October and travels to visit our far-flung almost-15
grandchildren. Then, back in May, for a reunion and honoring by the regatta
which serves as the small-college national finals, when we swept (Frosh, JV
and Varsity), and another grandkid swing, before heading back yet again...

Where do YOUR travels take you in the next year or so? Reluctantly, we've
had two Bahamas visits in 6 months (Bahamas interruptus); one was in a nice
NE breeze of 12-18 knots coming back in mid-September, as seen on our
tinyurl.com/flyingpigspotwalla (you'll have to adjust the date range by
clicking the arrow next to the name at the top of the page, to fit back to,
say, April of this year)...
