I strongly advise that all of you (it's too late for me) hide your e-mail address before posting to this or any other forum!!! Otherwise you'll be subject to mail spamming that I have never seen so far... Gorazd

The best way is to get a free account like hotmail or yahoo and use that to sign up for google posting etc. Then cancel the hotmail/yahoo account. This servers two purpose:- a. Spammer will get mails bounced back to them. Let them get their own shit back. b. Any usenet poster trying to contact you by email will know for sure that it is a bogus address and will contact you in alternate email address. rk-
