Rod, I have every single message ever entered in this area still online.  I
distinctly remember saying that the preferred approach for me was for you
to upload them into "Special Request", where they are immediately
available. You said that was fine.  If you do the upload at the same time
as you get your mail, it shouldn't take any longer at all to send the file
using Maximus instead of Binkley.  So, want to try out my "find"
command in GoldEd? Feeling lucky?  :-)  BFN.
