I would rather have the ability to create clean disks, rather than have 
to try ti fix the dvd players of any friends I loan a dvd to.

BTW, I found my mail problem, I switched from using courier-imap to 
dovecot for may imap server, because the permission-access for courier 
was too complicated, but I forgot to turn off the rc.d file, so I had 
battling imaps.  Very wierd results, which is why it took me so long to 
figure it out, and I let it get out of hand.
