i do not think that is needed myself. there is simplysomething missing.
i have missed many text posts, i know. i dont have enough time to read
every post. i am missing something, another key, a pass. none of the tc
imageswork, not because how tehy were downloaded and rejoined, most
likely its becasue of a lack of knowladge. its kind of hard to scan thru
2 months of posts and read all the text again.
btw, anyone know for sure what hte header limit is on xnews? i know i
passed it a few times and caused no end to my troubles.
