Thank you John, I was not aware of this resource.

P.S.  I am guessing that you are aware that I still get "Logic
Error" whenever I send mail to iecc.com (and I have been unable
to reply to Neil on account of that).  But on the off chance that
this was unintentional, I mention it again, in case you might be
inclined to rectify.  (I also guess that I am no longer on the
spamtools list, correct?)
