It does seem to have fixed the munging.  And it's even got around to
letting me send mail - I discovered that the email address was missing
- I dunno how that happened.  It was there a while back.  Anyway, I
re-entered it (munged) in a different format, and it seems OK now.

It also now seems to be posting back in the threads, so that's OK too
:)

It still tries to top post tho :(

Hell, I was happy doing it all through Outlook, I only got this to
stop people whining about me stiffing the threads.
