Thanks for the update, Barry!  I downloaded the full release and installed 
it on my test system.  I did not have any problem with the install, and 
test messages I sent through it showed normal operation.  So, I installed 
it on the 11 operational sites, and they all appear to have good installs 
as well.  Not bad for a Sunday afternoon...  ;)
