TSGL: Solve this one, if you can!

[Tilman Brandl]

ED,

I got both versions of your message here, so it has arrived at the list too, 
and certainly was seen by other members. I really hope that any of them has 
better ideas than I had....

As to the role the list server may play, I really wonder what could be wrong 
there - since the listowner is an IT pro, one with a degree, if I remember 
this correctly.

Regards
Tilman

  Hi Tilman -

  Thanks for lending me a shoulder:) I'm replying to your post, using my
  current subscription email address,  and am copying you (because the
  correspondence to the  list from OE has not been working, and at least you
  will see the response).

  Come to think of it, the problems started when the new server was 
installed,
  if that could be a reason.

  I could have written this note using the Gmail interface, and it probably
  would get posted, as did the original.

  This is being sent this way, following your suggestion to wear down the
  server, though  I don't think that it has that type of feeling.

  I use Panda anti-virus and Firewall, but have no restrictions that would
  possibly cause the riddle.

  I had been working with Mike Cermack, and I suggested putting the 'thing'
  before the 'list' for the outside help. If this does not make it as a 
post,
  feel free to post any part of it.

  Thinks again.

  ED
