Hi Michael. That's fine, but the Usenet (NNTP) protocol keeps track of the tree structure of posts and responses. Most News client software shows that structure, and both Daniel and I can see your original post as the tail end of a thread of thirty or so postings. Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not there :) Rob -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
