Yeah, well, some things we can't help. Like I can't help being a 
crotchety old bastard sometimes. Sorry, and thanks for the explanation.

I realise there is no chance your mail admins will remove the useless 
disclaimer, but could you ask them to put a "-- " line above it? That 
way us folks with mailers that at least attempt standards-compliance 
don't have to delete it from our replies (or, even worse, forget to, and 
leave multiple copies in - yes, we do all make mistakes, and sadly I'm 
no exception).

I did at least forbear from writing back pointing out I wasn't the 
intended recipient, etc., etc. :-)

Anyway, glad you got a pointer to the solution from Dennis.
