I helped out cos I could see you were trying to help yourself. That,
and the fact that I could see someone had given you the structures to
post correctly and you were trying to understand them.
There is no such thing as a dumb question when you truly seek wisdom.
Regardless of what Herb and JerryH say about "making mistakes" etc,
it's when the same mistakes keep getting made by people who persist
in posting incorrectly just because one stupid git says -
/gush thankyou.
That stupid git is usually a sock thanking himself because no else
did.
JerryH won't learn how to split his rar, after how long?? 30 years of
"tinkering" with computers??
You took a lot less than 30 years to learn to split rar....
Be proud of yourself.

As do we all. But good posting practices have changed very little.
Bad posting practices are just accepted as people don't want to help
because people are too precious about being "flamed".
It's not flaming when you are genuinely offering help.

/trying not to laugh... mehehehe.
Only two ppl felt sorry enough for YOU when you were posting badly and
dangerously (for your safety) to offer to HELP you.
Me and Griffin.
Think about that - and I had to poke Griffin with a stick to do it...
/laff
I do recall mutterings of "last time... /grumble /grumble...
I can only help you online, because as Dear as you are, I don't have
the features in place to email you (or anyone) safely.
You got your hair pulled til you were bald! So did I, so did
GoneBlonde and a precious few others.
We can post now.
Empathy is one thing, but that should be saved for lost causes. Anyone
posting badly in this group, after all the help files that have been
posted, are doing it because they are just plain rude.
Anyone not getting your posts is not doing a thing to help themselves.
Info has been posted a number of times for Sue to use sonic (free) and
she won't try it.
You cannot be expected to email her your posts. That is just rude.
It is not "flaming" when trying to show someone how to do something.
Where I come from it is called "helping".
Posts don't have to arrive here using a boat. With the knowledge
available here to posters they should be arriving wrapped in gold leaf
by First Class Courier.....
But alas, many do not.
Rough enough is good enough, seems to be their mantra.
>Me x

Keep yourself safe. You posted an email address that could be used by
anyone who saw it. Yahoo, gmail, hotmail - they are not secure.
If you email for one, how many others are going to be expecting the
same?
Pixie :-))
Ed's Note to Sue: I have seen you write that you cannot use another
server - why is that?? Sonic is free. It's free'er than Teranews. What
part of free are you unable to use??
