Hi Dario You will not be the only one who had problems in the early days. To answer to the list - so that everyone can read your answer - click on REPLY TO ALL. Then delete the first name and leave the SCT-SUTHERLAND part. It is very simple to do and you will soon get used to it. On your hotmail account you should consider telling it to accept all mail and then ignore the spam. This is the main reason that I do not like hotmail. I seem to remember you live in England? If so why not get yourself a Freeserve address or a Lineone address. They are both free and your mail will come directly into your computer rather than you having to go fetch it from hotmail's site. If you need any further help please do not hesitate to ask.

Apologies for my lack of response so far, but I'm having a few technical problems: First: my hotmail account was shunting most of the mail to my bulkmail folder (for spam) so I didn't see most of it until today. Secondly: I haven't yet worked out how to post a reply as a response to a thread rather than directly to the sender. Excuse my ignorance and please advise me! Once I have worked these out then I will try to respond to the relevant messages.
