Hi Paul,

BV> Is it possible for you to set the system to automagically delete any

No probs.

BV> The reason for my asking ..[chomp]..
PE> Sounds like you should just call in once a week then?

That is what I was planning.

PE> If you get it to call in automatically,

ROFL...That is the sort of _shit_ I write for other people.
Get real Paul. ***_Nothing_*** on my machine is automated.
I don't trust computers.

PE> it is up to you whether you read it or not.

I realise that but it would be a problem. If it is there, I will read
it, it's human nature. I might miss out on something otherwise. :)

PE> You can just delete your messagebase once a week (automatically)
PE> from your end, if that is indeed what you want to do.

I could, but I wouldn't.

PE> Basically, I'd suggest call once/week (e.g. on Friday night), and
PE> just kick it off manually as a background task, but don't bother
PE> reading it until you have time (10 minutes on Sunday?).

Yeah, this would be the best way to go. From now on, I'll poll once
on Friday night to get mail and I'll send any replies back on Sunday.

Regards, Brenton
