I only stated that the server had become busy because I thought the http logs were the problem. Other users are the main reason that it is busy. I don't consider my site as anything special. After I moved the logs and mail I still had the problem so I was asking for help with a FreeBSD machine. I thought that was what the mailing list was for. And the reason for the name is that Netscape mail only allows one identity. Since I answer customer mail most often, I have found it easier to leave it generic, however I changed it this time just for you. James W.
