As Mike Klinke and I had already been discussing, I WAS NOT aware that this was being sent to the entire list. I've had these warning sent to my email for months and not had this problem. Therefore I DON'T feel it necessary to spam the list and even didn't know I was inundating the list. That being said. I have taken measures to prevent this from happening again. Flames are appreciated but only when I'm aware that I screwed up. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
