Let me see the guide you followed in order to do that although I don't love Zimbra that much because accessing it via the we= b requires so much bandwidth - unless this changed.

Does it meet my requirements? --=20 Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube
