And it's taken you 5 days to respond to the original message ?

Where one member made a joke & Neil pointed out dcglug & general posting ettiquette 
you feel the need to bring it up again.

My email was and is working fine. My old mail account was cancelled and on trying to 
alter the setting for my list subscription I was getting error messages.
Hence in error I sent a mail to see if a post to the group was working; NOT my email 
account in general.
Personally if I ever see a message on our group like this (which after all is 
subscribed unlike usenet) my first reaction is always that someone has a problem 
with posting to the group.
It's blindingly ob ious that if I wanted to test just my server setting I could 
send/receive to myself or ask a freind to send me a mail.
Not 'spam' (with one post ?) the group and upset sooo many people.

Ray.
