Alternatively, use a saner number and Read . Note that if you want to dial from a standard phone you must use an all-numbers password. Maybe you can use '#' and '*', but bad things can happen to them. I don't know about A, B, C, and D (if you happen to carry on you a dialer that can generate those tones). -- Tzafrir Cohen | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | best ICQ# 16849754 | | friend ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
