hi and thanks --

after three frustrating days of typing in full e-mail addresses to send an e-mail -- surprise! -- it started working again this morning. i have no idea why it acted up this way, i hadn't changed ANYthing on my computer. maybe it had a little piece of dust in it?

i appreciate your quick response to my Q.

technology and i don't get along very well.
