my desktop could did not receive mail when my lap top was open. The mail went
to the laptop and not to my desktop. Why is this?

Change the settings in your laptop to leave a copy on the server until you
delete it. This is one of the reasons that I prefer the IMAP protocol
instead of POP3.

Hi there G' I hope that you are well? Where have you been? (dts still
lives).

Change the settings on "ALL" machines, that access the account.
Tools>accounts>select account>properties>advanced tab> also set one of the
machines to delete from the server after a reasonable number of days, that
suits you, to avoid the possibility of your mail box filling up.

Sabrina and I went on tour. :) http://travel.kgiii.info if you want to see
some of the pics but there are MANY more that we've just never bothered to
upload.

I took about a year off from most of the projects I was involved in (six
months of those were spent traveling and the rest were spent just doing
nothing or dealing with my mother's passing away).

We went all over the country, a bit over 25k miles total. From the mountains
to the alligator filled swamps we saw all that we wanted to and some that we
didn't. From Niagara Falls to the deserts of New Mexico and beyond. Our
quest to find the "Real America" turned out fruitless as we're back in Maine
until the spring or maybe even longer.

I'll submit my join request for DTS when I have the time (I still have those
old emails somewhere). As always, the reply email in this is not munged and
works but those who know probably have one or my more regularly checked
email addresses.

How have you and your's been? I hope all is well there.
