Hey scouse, hows it going, for starters, your posts are on-topic for
this group. 2nd, Jes is correct in all of the info he provided but
before going to all that trouble, only since you are new to auto
posters I would suggest trying the one that I have used for years,
this poster is also a version of PP2K, different in a way because it
allows you to post in uue not just yenc, most PP's allow that.
Simply put Don Marcus between the ( ) marks, if you had the models
name, you could put her name there, then space, then (Don Marcus),
don't change anything else on the subject line.
The proggie name is PP2K jw version c, you can d/l it here, if you go
to the main page of this site you will see all of the different d/l's
that they have, very good d/l site.
So please try iy out and see if the results are better, post away my
friend....................Echohead
