Thank you very much Barry, for the explanation. I will have to say that 
when I saw the message posted on another board, it scared the 
"bejeebers" out of me; but I credit that to my being a neophyte when it 
comes to computers and 'echo mail'. In fact, I am befuddled every time 
I turn-on the 'puter. :) I had no idea I was in 'echo mail' whatever 
that is. I realize it must "echo" through-out some system, but why, I 
just do not know. Would not that be a dangerous thing?
Again, thank you for taking the time to educate me:)
