HI Wolf Another "option" would be ... in the future ... to require that those interested send all requests for things like these ( maps, etc. ) DIRECTLY to the person(s) making the offer ... ? It's not a complicated operation to change the TO: line and enter the correct address ( mhaab@web.de in this case ) But ... people being what they are, it most likely is a "mission tmpossible" situation.
