Of coarse, if you ask a question no one has an answer to, you arn't going to get an answer. If you have HTML enable, you arn't likely to get an answer no matter what. If I even see a message is in HTML format, even if its legible, I won't even read it. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
